  Cork was excellent. Color showed some bricking. Palate of medium fruit and only mild tannins. It was a great wine to sip alone and with our appetizers. Probably a good place to drink up the last bottle. We followed with another Brunello, also a 2010, Casanova di Nero, that had more intense fruit and more tannic character and it matched well with the heavier main course. Both were excellent I’m glad we drank the Pacenti first.

  Cork broke. Still drinking well but fruit has faded/softened. Nearly black in the glass, briar, hint of plum.

  Cork was in perfect condition. Was worried based on some earlier comments. Intense and complex fruit but not overbearing. Alcohol slightly higher than I would prefer but it did not detract from the overall experience. Deep rich color. Drinking window still has a bit of time left. I’ll probably hold my last bottle until next year.

  Le bouchon est très long et a brisé au 3/4. Faites attention!

  Cork broke when I opened, so I filtered through an aerator. Was a beautiful color and drank very well with very little time in the decanter. Delicious and expressive. My feeling is it’s at peak, and probably worth drinking over the next year or so.
