  Really nice dark fruit with undertones of petrol and eucalyptus. Excellent structure. Still had firm tannins. This has the ability to age more.

  Showing a medium garnet appearance, the nose presents you with notes of oak, cherry and a slight hint of tar. Chewy tannins and moderate acidity translates to a short and clean finish. An ageworthy wine that will benifit from more cellaring. Drink 2030-2035

  Opened to breathe for 4h before sampling. Lovely fragrant nose, earthiness, mushrooms, spices, red fruit, great complexity. On the palate, round red fruit, more earthiness and spices, round mouthfeel, some tannins in the finish, acidity in the undertones. Perfect balance. Hard to ask for more in a brunello. This was outstanding!
