Perfume of cherries and rose pedals, strawberries, tobacco, vanilla, mushrooms. Balanced acidity and freshness, sour cherries, plums, raspberries. Silky tannins. Really well balanced, lovely wine.

Nice. Red berries (ripe cherries), some florals, balsamic and dark coffee on the nose. A tad of alcohol shows up on the end of the nose as well. Nice fresh red berries on the palate with strong assertive tannins that leave a mouth-drying finish. There’s enough of everything for this to age nicely. Revisit in 5-10 years.

This wine is really really Fabulous!
(I just had a 2015 Mate Brunello Christmas Eve. It was in a place of "brooding", and not presently ready for pleasurable consumption.)
