Restaurant purchase at Taverna in Austin. Decanted before and during dinner. Surprisingly approachable. Medium bodied. Enjoyed the 2001 four years ago and it did not disappoint, and neither did this! Spicy red berries, cherries and that earthiness that seems to come with a top tier Brunello. Elegant and classy. Wonderful with veal Marsala.

Not exceptional (lacks energy) but not bad value for money at $20. Drink now

Very delight and colorful nose. Lots of different flavours ranging from sweet berries, mature herbs and white pepper.

Already showing well. Classic Brunello notes.
