April 1, 2024 - This bottle showed even better with great acidity, grip and focus. Best within first hour. After two hours the acidity sifted too much and this got a little fat and flabby.

November 20, 2023 - Nice wine. Very subtle. Lost any power it had but has a pleasant finesse and finish. Old enough that the fruit and tannins are starting to separate so finish this up while you can. 12 years is a long time for this wine.

July 19, 2023 - The Brunello tastes of leather, cigar, and mild black cherry. It has bigger flavor than it looked. The color was slightly brownish as I piured. The finish was mild, smooth and acidic. The wine is probably at peak or slightly past peak. I recommend drinking it now.
