April 28, 2024 - Medium red. Great earthy black cherry and thyme nose. Delicious textured cherry, berry, dried mushroom and currant flavours. The finish is long and balanced with a bit of thyme.
I don’t remember ever having a BdM so good at this age. My experience with young Brunello has never been this much fun.2 people found this helpful Comment -

February 1, 2024 - Drank next to the 2017 and show more ripeness and polish. Juicy red fruit, milk chocolate, forest floor and mineral. Really good right from the start with or without a decant.
