A classic Brunello that is developing faster than I would have expected. I had this bottle at a restaurant so I don't know the provenance.
Light ruby color, no signs of amber at the rim. Full aromas of ripe black fruit with some sour cherry and red licorice, hints of leather and mushrooms. Full bodied with fresh acidity and smooth tannins. The finish is very long and remains fresh while echoing the initial aromas. Well integrated already. Earlier than I would have expected from this classic Brunello. Still it has a lot of structure to continue to develop for many years. Drink now - 2024.
