  Peaked at 1-2 hours of decant time. Sweet bing cherry dominated. Drink remaining soon, but should be good for 5 more years.

  I agree with the previous few notes, this wine is in perfect shape at nearly 50 years old, and can possibly stand another decay, very well balanced, obviously mature, elegant and enjoyable. A great example of mature well done brunello

  I saw some bottles available at a trusted dealer, read the reviews below first (of course), and then took the chance and bought 3 bottles. The first one turned out to be absolutely sublime, so I bought the remaining 3 bottles as well. Of course, there might well be bottle variation awaiting; no risk, no fun.

  Fantastic!!!! Great acid for almost 50+ year old wine. Notes of dark cherry, raspberry, and tobacco. Layers, with a long finish. Amazing QPR, which blows away burgundy of similar quality.
