October 28, 2023 - Red fruits, savory. I expected more intensity of aromas and flavor than this.

July 19, 2023 - Delicious wine. Surprised by the screwcap. First impression was tight and edgy with piercing acidity. Drank a bottle of Bollinger and let this one breathe for next hour.
Wine was much more approachable after that time. Very Italian nose, beautiful tannic structure and very elegant on the palate. Heaps of red cherry fruit, herbs and warm earth. Long finish.2 people found this helpful -

June 28, 2023 - Super Tuscans - Berry Brothers; 6/28/2023-7/28/2023 (St James St, London): Classic ruby red. Med/full body, sweet and sour cherries, red and black cherry, brambles, orange nose. Herbaceous, floral, tannins opening, follows with pepper and acidity is fine and clean. Tannins continue to build, and are currently quite dominant. Fruit is very present too. This is an excellent structured wine which stands up to the tannins. Some age is likely to soften these.
