October 23, 2022 - Medium reddish ruby in color. Full, fragrant & attractive nose of ripe fruit overtones of cherries & berries with overtones earthy/dusty & floral notes, tobacco, herbs, minerals & a hint of cedar. Medium bodied with a good concentration of balanced, smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries & strawberries with herbs & minerals. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing although it might develop further with additional aging.

December 1, 2021 - very classic, straight and zingy acidity - very succulent, makes you drool!
Leather and a bit tobacco leaf, pepper, cherries and green strawberries and resin in the finish...
good acidity, medium bodied - definitely a food wine (with prosciutto di parma and italian salad)!

January 27, 2020 - Tasted at Benvenuto Brunello NYC. This wine was a barrel sample brought to the tasting as the vintage has not yet been bottled. Considering that, I thought it was a pleasant wine to drink...not profound but with a sweet, floral and fruity profile with what seemed like a kiss of oak. A solid wine that will probably be better in a year.
