Tasted blind. Nice nose of forest, dark cherries, pepper, dark fruit, and a hint of menthol. Medium acidity on the palate with brighter flavors than on the nose. Good structure and ripeness balance it out. Nice finish. Drinking quite well right now!

Medium clear red, lightening. Great devloped nose, starts with a Bordeaux like funk but then becomes a bit sweeter and shows mushrooms, black cherry and earth. Delicious cedar and red fruit flavours and a developed finish with a typical hitt of acid to finish it off.

(no decant): slightly bricked ruby-red; touch of barn and herbs on the nose; silky tannins, lovely balance, long finish; evolving funghi and herbal notes (juniper, anise) over black-cherries; nice complexity and a touch of mystery (was a favorite among the tasters at this event). Still has years to evolve; 18.

Very nice mature brunello. Flavors have softened to the point of being very easy to taste and consume. Very popular at the table.

Perfectly aged wine. Soft tannis, lovely fruit. Got better in the glass after 20 minutes. Delicious.

Superb aromatics, a kaleidoscope of berries, a hint of soy sauce. Absolutely pure, slender taste. At its peak. 92P
