Saturated dark cherry, blackberry, eucalyptus and tar on the nose. Hints of vanilla, baking spice, violet with air. Not much fun on the palate today - quite tight and charmless. Some vibrancy to the fruit but it's overwhelmed by quite rough and distinctly bitter tannins, and a ragged texture on the finish. Definitely worth holding a while longer.

Really appealing, elegant and silky, solid, but not aggressive or overpowering, tannin structure is firm and the quality of fruit obvious and handling with ease, nice job here and excellent wine.

3 hrs decant. Sweet and jammy. All about fruit. Marmalade, but with some tannin grip. Nice.
Chris’s 12 brunello is a bit more elegant
