Brunello 2010 horizontal (Singapore): Very interesting reading the notes below. First wine of tasting. Very savory and rich, round, integrated tannins, dark fruit and even some dark chocolate. I thought there was a touch of TCA on the nose here but the palate was clean, a few others commented however that there was an oxidative touch though, which I was not getting. Any way, it is a very modern style of Brunello, that has been pushed perhaps a bit too far in terms of ripeness. Not my favorite style but not a bad wine in my eyes.

Deep Ruby. On the way down already. Only balsamic on the nose, covered everything. On the palate it was good, high acidity, medium but nice finish. This would have been better 2-3 years ago.

Dark brownish ruby color and intensive balsamic vinegar aromas covering the black fruit and the wet earth of the background. Sweet raisin flavor on the mouth with hints of bitter aftertaste. Beyond its optimum drinking period. Should have been consumed earlier.

After ample open time, spice and oak are on the nose and licorice, cherry, spice in the palate. Just lovely. This can be enjoyed now, but probably still quite a few more years to go.

I'd give it another year or two.
