  58$
  Tuscany, Italy
  Décanté 45 min
  
  Nez:
  
  Fruits rouges, pas mal d'éthanol
  
  Au goût:
  Acidité: 3.5/5
  Tannins: 4/5
  
  Grenadine et fraise en début de bouche, le chêne arrive assez vite, et peut-être un peu trop fort, où l'age pourrait lui faire du bien.
  En fin de bouche, confiture de fraises, délicieux.
  
  Review: 88. Définitivement de mieux en mieux avec l'âge.
  À racheter?: J'essaierais d'autres brunellos dans la même gamme. À essayer de faire vieillir.

  Showing well already, with notes of ripe black cherry, blackberry, and mixed herbs supplanted by emerging tannins. Hints of tar and oak linger on the medium finish. Tasty now, should only improve further in the next few years.

  Drank PnP not impressed. Either needs decanting or more time in the bottle.

  High alcohol - 15% shows through with thinner texture

  Solid wine to enjoy with food. Very light on the palate and balanced even at this young age
