Date approximate. With client. Pop and pour. I bought it at auction because I expected a lot, then people told be Nardi was notorious for mixing in other grapes so I had low expectations,but this exceeded expectations and tasted correct for a Brunello of this age.It was excellent.No contemporaneous note so I won't talk specific flavors but this is my best recollection.

Medium dark red. Aromas of bandaid and sharp stone fruit. Tannins are refined, but still noticable. Flavors of leather, dark cherry and berries. Needs more time on the shelf.

Drinking like a Brunello reference, with deep purple color, a mysterious nose of smoky black fruits and must that carries to the palate with blackberry, a hint of black cherry, mushroom and loam and black earth. Balanced and integrated perfectly, tannins turned sweet and embracing, and leaves with a long and very memorable finish. Drinking absolutely perfectly now.

Drinking beautifully. Decanted about an hour before drinking
Singing right now. Some pepper and spice; good acidity to balance out tones of cherry.

Medium red collar. Nice black current smell and red fruits. Nice black cherry finish with a hint of blackberries. Great buy!
