After the disappointment of the first bottle being corked, this wine lifted our spirits. Really complex nose or herbs, leather, anise, and dark berries. The palate has deep fruit held in check by somewhat sandy tannins. This seems like it is still a few years away from really hitting peak form although the food tamed the structure a bit. A really characterful and excellent Brunello.
