2006 Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova
3/14/2015 - vinaigre Likes this wine: 94 Points
Very deep ruby red, tight nose of blackberries and cherries and some oak. Nice texture, tight tannins and acidity. This has a long road ahead. Not showing a lot even after some time in the glass, but all the stuff is there. Will let the other bottles sleep some more.

Deep ruby red, still purplish on the edges, nice nose of currants and red fruits, still surprisingly tight, nice acidity and tannins. Started to show better after some time in the glass. No rush to drink if you have some left. Hold for a few more years.

2001 d'Arenberg Shiraz The Dead Arm

Deep ruby red, almost opaque. Nice nose of blackberries, ripe plums, and a nice smokiness. Great mouthfeel with nice texture of well integrated tannins. This was popped and poured, it is ready to go but there's no rush. Solid wine that paired well with the best gumbo I ever had.
