My 1st place in 2006 Brunello tasting. Brilliant fruit with great cherry notes. Still needed the 2.5 hr decant given to all 8 entries. Tart entry, roundish middle, and long smooth finish with easy tannins.

Slightly more mature than the previous bottle but still with that intense cherry liquor herby fruit and well judged lick of oak bringing cedar, tobacco and dash of bitter chocolate. Sad to see the last of these. Would love to have a dozen more. 94

This is just an outstanding Brunello. The longer it was in the glass the better it got.
