This bottle has reached it peak. Intense nose of smokiness and gravel when first opened. Let it rest for a while and secondary notes of dark fruit and licorice, leather, cigar and mushroom slowly developing. On the tertiary note I can find forest floor and river stone. What a powerful and complexity this wine has! Tannin and acidity has slowly balanced off after a rest in the decanter. What a great wine from Tuscany! Delish!

Intense nose of charred cherries, forest floor and minerals. A deep and intense wine with delicious flavors of ripe dark cherry fruit, succulent tree bark, licorice and smoky graphite minerals. Full and silky with a firm backbone of acidity and tannins and the finish is dry, dark and dusty with a very unique rocky, graphite thing that grabs the tongue. This reeks of stones and altitude and has a flavor profile that is really distinctive and alluring. Very special terroir here.

This is a really classy, unique wine that's ready to drink but will age for years. Simply gorgeous flavors of black cherry, licorice and smoky earth accompanied by grippy acidity and a texture like liquid steel. The finish has this crunchy intensity with a great mineral tension that really saturates the tongue. Awesome stuff.

Wow - best Chianti so fare. Dark plums, silkyness and ripe fruit. Still young but already great showing. (tasted at the winery)
