A very nice Brunello with the 10 years of age helping. Cherry and mineral. Easy to drink, solid wine, with not as much depth or complexity as some Brunellos, but very enjoyable.. Just bought the 2007 vintage of this wine. Looking forward to the comparison.

Really a very nice wine, just not the most outstanding example of Brunello. Opens with a decidedly Brunello nose, but then becomes almost Pinot like and not quite as concentrated or dense as might be liked. Still with time a very nice spicy yet earthy nose develops and accompanies moderate length. Not in the league with a lot of other Brunellos, but nice none-the-less I paid only 24 US, so that may affect my opinion too, good for that price.

Undeniably Brunello, with tart cherry, mineral, Itallian earth, but not my favorite as it is a little thin on the mouthfeel.

dark and extracted beautifull complex dry tannic herbal tea with a smooth silky polished finish. Newer style and very drinkable now.
