    March 21, 2021 - My limited experience with this winery so far has been good. I've like their brunellos a little younger and fresher as a whole. This 15yr is tasty with tight tannins to start and cherry,, cranberry and raspberry notes with soft earthiness but declines over time allowing some ethyl acetate to peek through.

    October 28, 2020 - Fully mature, decant not recommended, peaks at about 45 min, decline after 2 hrs
    Warm ripe dark earthy, but a little indistinctive

    July 6, 2020 - Ripe dark fruit, mushrooms and earth, quite mature. Very different from the bottle I had last year. Very nice.

    December 20, 2019 - Ripe dark fruit, with some earth and leather, but surprisingly tough and tannic. Maybe this bottle was a little off.

    May 23, 2019 - Shockingly delicious. Almost drank like a high end Napa cab. This was multi layered, sweet but in a sophisticated way of feeling ripe but not cloying, and had such a long complex finish. Incredible as I think i bought this on close out during the recession
