    March 23, 2022 - Yummy smooth. Almost past peak

    March 6, 2022 - Dried cherry and dried cranberry. Moderate tannins. Medium finish. A bit of baking spice. Fruit is restrained and showing its age.

    September 15, 2020 - One of the best Brunello's ever tasted. Huge on the nose, in the mouth and the finish. Had with a Caprese salad. Save the last bottle for a few more years.

    September 30, 2019 - Had this during our Tuscany trip with friends 9/28 to 10/5 to Villa Montepulciano. We tasted this at the Enoteca La Fortezza Di Montalcino. Line-up included Brunello's from 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 2010. The 2015 was tasted but will not be released to us till next year.

    Another value player among the group but one which fell short given the stunning line-up. Cherry fruit set within a firm gripped tannin laden wine. Clearly its best days lie ahead. Today this simply did not show compared to the others
