I tasted a small pour while the rest decanted for two hours, and it really needed those two hours. After the decant the flavors burst forth. Amarena cherry, dusty bluebells, dried grassy herbs, tobacco, and leather. Powerful structure, yet balanced, with grippy tannins holding strong even after 3 hours. This is still a young wine but extremely enjoyable nonetheless, especially pared with our dinner of standing rib roast, cauliflower with pine nuts, and garlicky sautéed mushrooms. I am going to wait a couple years before opening the next one.

Classic Montalcino Brunello. Medium body, good acid and tannins without astringency. Great with the meal.
