Given this was heat damaged 2.5 years ago this was showing amazingly well. The colour is about the only thing that suggests this was damaged at all - a bit browned at the rim. After an hour or so of air, I might be convinced this was a Brunello from a warm sunny year from a site that retains good freshness/acidity. Plums, cherries, earth, hint of bitterness on the finish, great acidity, and black tea on the finish.

Very nice! Drank over a period of a week. Didn't take notes, but it got better as the days passed!
