November 27, 2019 - Nose of saddle leather, red bramble fruit, a bit of baking spices. Nice acid and a lingering finish.

October 14, 2013 - Past it's prime, would have expected much more life from this expensive bottle than 13 years. Was not vinegar but lacked life and flavor to really give it any credit.

January 15, 2012 - First bottle, decanted for ~2hrs and the wine opened up beautifully. This was an awesome, classic Brunello that was light and airy with hints of cherries and a little dry finish. 2nd bottle was decant and drink, as good as the first. Drink now!
