Still drinking very well but it's time to drink up. Nice texture , aged character and good complexity. The oak component which was quite strong early on has retreated.

This wine is still improving significantly in the bottle. Less oaky, better integrated than about a year ago. Deep ruby color, showing little aging. Significant tannin structure but in harmony. Rich texture, fruit, spice and oak derived aromatics. Excellent length and clean finish. Everything you can expect in a good bottle of aged Brunello. Will improve for another 5-8 years

Beautiful brunello reaching the end. Drink now, tannins are long gone enjoy the softness and beauty before it's too late

The wine looks ruby colored, smooth, medium to full bodied. There is no sediment in the bottle. Not much fruit flavor.
