This bottle was great, so guessing the last bottle I had may have had an issue. This bottle definitely didn’t seem tired or dusty and was more in line with my earlier note. Have got half the bottle left so will see how it fares this evening.

Nowhere near as good as the last bottle. Had a very dusty, woody quality. Just generally felt a bit over the hill. Enjoyable on the palate still, less so the nose. Hopefully just bottle variation. I’ve got one left, and the other four bottles before this one were delightful, so fingers crossed! Decanted for 1 hour, which could also have been a factor. Decant for 30 mins next time.

Absolutely gorgeous wine. Decanting helps to remove sediment, but it didn’t really need the air. Just a nice mature bottle of wine which has plenty of time left. Rivals any Bordeaux for the price.

Still young and fresh! Very deep dark color. Beautiful fruity Merlot dominated nose. Increasing intensity after 2 hours. Raspberry, blueberry and espresso. Harmonious, smooth and well balanced. Medium to long finish, silky tannins. I am convinced that the wine will deliver pleasure for wine lovers for 2-4 more years. Excellent qpr as always with Serre Nuove!

Very good -- drinking well right now. Just PnP.
Don't often drink super tuscans, but this reminded me how "new world" they seem compared to the Brunellos and Barolos and so on.
