Community Tasting Note

Sunday, February 11, 2024 - Slow oxed all day then I poured a small glass. The cork looked brand new only saturated about 1/4”. So dark that you can’t see any sign of age. The nose explodes with notes of cherry, eucalyptus, cardamom, fresh cut flowers and cinnamon. Still has enough tannin to keep this young and lively. Sweet cherry cough syrup, bitter orange and barnyard notes. This is what a great Brunello is all about. In a great spot but probably can age for many more years. Sadly only one more left. Tonight just shining. 94-95. I think I already won the Super Bowl. LOL.
I kept one glass to revisit tonight. The wine has not budged the tannins are a bit smoother maybe enhancing the drinking experience. There are no great wines only great bottles. This was a great bottle. Maybe a point or two higher.
