  Is it possible to feel a wine it it bouquet? The mouthfeel and the finish all on the nose. Raspberry and cherry infused stone. Rocks and fruit. Ethereal. It is impossible for this wine to get better.

  This is why we age Brunello.
  
  Savory nose of red fruit, leather, menthol, spices.
  
  So silky on the palate with black cherry fruit accented nicely by Tuscan earth, tobacco, saddle leather, and minerals. Long finish of more cherry fruit and earth.
  
  In a great spot right now at 15 years of age. Will likely hold for another few years. Drink now - 2024

  Dried roses dried cherry, baked clay, a ton of eucalyptus and wild herbs, and meaty notes. Very interesting. Medium bodied, fresh finish and sandy tannins. The fruit is alive and sweet, with a sanguine underpinning to everything. The finish is a touch hot, but long and delicious. At peak and should stay here for the next few years.

  Dark garnet with no bricking. Dried red fruits (currant, raspberry), dusty cherry, cedar and iron shavings on the nose; dried red fruits on the palate. Medium bodied with great, food-friendly tannins and acidity. Falls off on the back of the palate and finish, but who cares - really in a great place at the moment, and went well with a terrific Parmesan-cream sauce. Delicious.

  Earthy nose with a hint of warm current. Balanced front to back, tannins are very soft, medium to full bodied. Red berry flavor with a hint of smoke and earth.
