This was an above average Brunello, but for the price point I would not complain at all. Some of the older ones were a bit more complex (2014 not a great year), but this was still enjoyable enough to continue purchasing. Sour notes, some fruitiness but a bit hidden.

Decant: 60 minutes Visual appeal: Medium ruby with pale ruby on the edge. Nose: Dusty attic, rocks, leather, smoke. That's cool. Taste: Plum, tobacco, sour fruit and pepper on the end. All subdued. Not a lot going on here. Tannin on sides of tongue. As another taster noted: less than stellar season, cool and wet.

Decanted in bottle for one day... it could be acceptable.

Not worth the coin. It is ok, nothing exceptional. Wouldn't buy again.

Not bad, but underwhelming. Poor QPR
