  November 8, 2015 - Fruity and lighter than some Brunellos, good nose, medium finish. It was more acidic than the deeper, heavier brunellos, but still a worthwhile wine.

  December 21, 2012 - Très beau Brunello sur la cerise, la framboise et le chocolat. Un brunello en finesse. Longue finale

  November 11, 2012 - Osteria I Nonni Fall Italian Tasting (I Nonni, St. Paul, MN): Nose is bright, ripe fruits, cherry, berry, chocolate, subtle florals notes. the palate comes across as medium-light bodied, fairly elegant, nicely balanced.

  November 11, 2012 - I Nonni Fall Tasting: Nice wine with floral, cherry and cedar. Rustic in style and well made classic Brunello. Should age well for a decade.

  September 29, 2012 - Spicy on the nose but with a certain amount of fruitiness. A bit thin but it´s spicy enough to work well with the right food. Dry aftertaste with a hint of mint. Some green and blackpeppers as well.
  
  Drink this wine now I don´t think it will improve much. Be sure to match with the right food though. On it´s own it´s just an 87 wine but with the right food it works much better. Italian gamebird with a spicy souce works great.
