    June 11, 2023 - Wow, right in it’s sweet spot, wish I had more. Cherries, tobacco on the finish. If you have any, drink up, better yet, sell them to me.

    January 20, 2023 - Final bottle, which I shared with my kids. A good wine but not as remarkable as I remember. Plenty of fruit with some tannin. Still has time.

    (5/20/2021) Shows you what Brunello is all about. Terrific wine and beginning to round out. I have just one bottle left. Bummer!

    (5/7/2018) Same notes. Needs 5-10 more years. But can I wait that long?

    (8/1/2017) Deeply colored crimson. Nose of sweet cherries with hints of vanilla from oak barrels. Made in the "new style" of Brunello. A dry rendering of cherries jubilee in the flavors with plenty of alcohol fire, tartness and fine, dusty tannins. A wine such as this could only come from Montalcino.

    May 29, 2019 - Think this will improve with time. Drank too soon. Good, but tannins overpower. 3 bottles to go. Try another in a few years.
