My last bottle - this is still a great wine - I had my last bottle in 2019 and this was indeed a great wine - one of the best Rosso I have had - not 5 years later the wine has lost some of its freshness, elegance and perfect balance - I will go down to 92.

Tannins resolved, and this one was ready within 15 min after decanting. No (or truly little) sediment to note. This is racy with some barnyard on the nose and clean and precise mouthfeel, a pure joy. It is heading to Burgundy village than your typical RdM, but so is the price. Really, I can drink this one every day if it was £15-20.

Sadly my last bottle, but this was a textbook elegant Sangiovese. Red cherry nose, a lacy, red-fruited palate, integrated tannins, snappy acidity, and a long finish. A great bottle of Sangiovese that is brimming with energy and drinking so well right now.

Mother of God...this is hauntingly beautiful. I wish I had bought another case of this wine. I would trade bottles of Brunello to get more bottles of this Rosso. Yes...it's that good. The nose is a melange of herbs, red fruits, spices, leather, and something that reminds me of the smell in a store filled with antiques. The palate is bright & full of red fruits, cinnamon, clove, and kumquats. This is F-ing brilliant.
