  (Blind verkostet) Mittleres Granatrot, aufgehellter Ränder. Die Nase ist komplex, tiefgründig, dezent rauchig, reife Frucht, Granatapfel, Kirschen, florale Töne, Rosen, Veilchen, Tee, Kräuter, was für ein Duft, eine Droge. Im Gaumen auf den Punkt gereift, feines Tannin, sensationelle Säure, das ist wunderbar ausgewogen, die Frucht ist knackig, die Säure und das Tannin harmonieren mit der Frucht, ausgezeichnet, lang, würzig, frisch, herbales Finale. Grosses, sehr grosses Barolo-Kino. Jetzt bis 2038

  splendido, ancora molto giovane e reticente ma di una energia magistrale. Aspettare ancora 5 anni come minimo.

  Birthday Celebration (State Street Manor & Racquet Club - Chicago IL): Walk around tasting, brief note from memory. So much here, so much potential with lots of dark fruits, more than typical for great Barolo. Lots of potential, this is close to entering its first phase of approachability and enjoyment. Certainly 92-94 point potential.

  Vinous Piedmont Icons Dinner @ Legacy Records (Legacy Records, NYC): The 2010 Brunate was once again insanely beautiful, while tasting it in the context of the '04 Brunate and a number of other wines showed just how unique and exotic the fruit profile of the wine is.
  
  The nose was intensely perfumed, exotic, and sweet, with dark red, blue, and purple-toned, hard-candy like fruits, balsamic, raw meat, leather, and exotic floral tones. On the palate, the Brunate is an intense wine, with high acidity and a lot of tannin, but the tannins are so finely grained that they melt into the wine. Again, the exotic profile of the fruit and the sweetness of the fruit stands out, with citrus fruit and a spectrum of red, purple, and blue fruit tones sweeping across the palate alongside balsamic and sweet spices. The wine is very primary and should have a long runway for aging ahead of it, but as it's always been in my experience, it is so expressive and enjoyable now. This seems like a wine that has never and presumably will never shut down.
