  Cork broke at restaurant. Conveniently I brought my handy dandy durand with me. And the sommelier brought out a decanter. Initially very dry, graphite, minimal fruit. An hour in the fruit came out. Very pleasant. No tannins, don't taste the alcohol. Good finish. Not sure this will go much longer but very pleasant.

  Still holding on well. Pretty floral and earth notes, tasty fruit, smooth and dusty tannic structure. That being said, it wasn't a wow wine. Very good, just not very excellent. Certainly enjoyed it, showing nice age in the finish, drink up if you have.

  I found this when drinking my 97 brunello's. Forgot I had it.
  It was a great bottle. Wonderful nose, solid fruit and tannins.

  From a magnum. A beauty right now. Dense and succulent, the core is a combination of ripe dark cherries, olives and that special Montalcino 'garrigue' of brush, olive trees and volcanic soil. This wine is seamless and powerful now and the riserva quality fruit will carry this wine easily for years to come. Just right now and will continue to improve.

  Terrific. Nice structure with a little spice. This should continue to drink well through 2014.
