The last for the year in these series of dinners presented by Anthony D'Anna from Boccaccio Cellars/Mondo Imports. With the exception of a couple of ringers, this was a collection of top 2004 Brunello di Montalcino.
All wines were double decanted approx. 4 hours before the dinner. No detailed notes take, more general impressions.

Similar to previous bottles, quite a bold, round style of sparkling. This one did come across a little flabby, but enjoyable none the less.
