Community Tasting Note

• rmalloy Likes this wine: 93 points

  October 28, 2023 - I don’t agree with the last review. This is high quality brunello that is drinking well now and may even improve with more age.

  You may be right on that timeline...

  10/29/23, 7:52 PM - I am not an expert. To my tastes, the wine tasted like it was aged in smaller Bordeaux-like barriques as opposed to big traditional botte. My experience is that wines aged in barriques taste more round and fruity and wines aged in botte taste more lean and savory. As for French vs Slavonian oak, I associate the former with barriques and the latter with botte. So just based on taste, I would have thought this wine was aged in French barriques. But I don’t know.
