  Open and decanted before drinking - we only gave it 1 1/2 hours in the decanter - would recommend at least three hours. On the nose you are getting both cherries and cranberries - on the palette you are still getting the two mentioned fruits and hints of prunes - we are also getting menthol - we are also getting leather - tannins and acidity are both medium plus - acidity a bit more dominating - but a very well balanced wine with a good long aftertaste. This is our first bottle and we will give a solid 93 - with a clear expectation of more to come.

  Been on my radar to open. With trepidation, as this is from auction and have had poor experience from this particular cellar. Not surprisingly, cork was dry and essentially disintegrated. But! Not to worry as this beauty was in good shape and indeed, as per other recent comments, was best 1hr+ after open. That said, if I had more from this auction/cellar I would not wait for continued improvement, but for most who hold this wine from a reliable source, I would anticipate several more years of refinement ahead. Best to you all.

  Beautiful wine. A great balance of fruit with some earthy finish. Opened for about an hour before drinking and that was fine but wine got better as the night went on. Enjoyed with some pasta and red sauce and a salad.

  This improved dramatically over the course of the evening, with initial tannic blitz fading and deeper flavors emerging. 2.5 hour decant, next time longer for sure.

  Excellent Brunello. Beautiful aromas of dark cherry fruit, vanilla and spice on the palate and nice long finish. Great to drink now but has still quite a few years left.
