December 2, 2021 - Brunello with some roses: A little funky at the start but blew off after a couple of hours. Some commented this was more like a Burgundy than a Brunello on the nose, but the only giveaway was the rather firm and rustic tannins. Judging from the price jumps in recent vintages, I think they might have refined their style to become a more elegant one compared to this showing.
