Drank from a 3L. Green nose as soon as opened. Celery in particular. Herbaceous, probably revealing the vintage. Then it opens up, and it shows a very dusty nose. Dusty tannins as well. Some fresh fruit on the palate then hydrocarbons, petrol. Balsamic the following day. A well rounded Brunello, a bit restrained but palate that covers primary fruit to some tertiary notes. So in an optimal drinking window. The acidity is balanced. Drink or store for another 5 years max.

Very mediocre. Flat, uninspired. Not worth extensive notes. Didn't get past the first glass, & opened something else.
