  Spectacular, consumed now, it is undoubtedly at its peak. Complex, refined, and elegant. Incredible persistence, a beautiful nose, never intrusive, with many tertiary aromas but still a presence of red fruit. Vintage with great acidity and a tannin in the background, perfect with the Sashi with which we paired it. Still a very youthful color, a layered and complex nose, wood, leather, and still spices and chocolate. In the mouth, great elegance and great drinkability, a bottle you wish would never end.
  
  Spettacolare, bevuto ora è sicuramente all'apice. Complesso, raffinato ed elegante. Una persistenza incredibile, un naso bellissimo, mai invadente, tantissimi aromi terziari ma un frutta rossa ancora presente. Annata di grande acidità con un tannino in secondo piano, perfetto con la Sashi alla quale lo abbiamo abbinato. Colore ancora molto giovanile, naso stratificato e complesso, legno, cuoio e ancora spezie e cioccolato. In bocca grande eleganza e grande beva, bottiglia che vorresti non finisse mai.

  Wonderfully balanced wine. Dark cherry red color. Not too much oak.

  Deep dark ruby red. Hints of violets and vanilla on the nose. On the palate this is a well integrated wine with good balance of fruit and complexity. Maybe a bit too much oak for my tastes. Finish is medium. Really nice example of mature Brunello.
