October 14, 2010 - This wine has lots of life ahead of it. Opened this bottle a week ago, immediately poured into a 375ml -recorked and put in the fridge... my wife opened the half 2 days ago, tonite I drank the last glass and it was drinking very well, showing no age, and it has become more round, but still showing some nice sangio notes.

May 10, 2009 - nice, but seems a bit flabby. Still cant help comparing it to the 2001, where the sangio is just sharper, more delineated and amped up.

November 4, 2008 - Ooo laa laa , tuscany here we come! A surprisingly dark and brooding garnet with a light thin rim of brick, Lots of smoky cherries, baking chocolate, flowers, salami. On the Palate initial flavors are iron, sour cherry, and meats that give way to very high italian acid that seems to be the delivery device for a ton of savor.....the finish is loaded with dried cherries, dusty tannin and baking chocolate. short-med finish, med + acid, med + tannin, med concentration
This wine seemed much sweeter, almost super tuscan like initially, but has moved firmly to pure sangiovese with 2 hrs open. I really felt that this is cut with something when i first opened it and im not sure what this region does, so its all a guess. The acidity was also less prevalent on the palate right out of the bottle.
