  Beautiful cherry notes on the nose. Nice mid palate but slightly lacking in complexity for this price point. Enjoyable with Italian food

  With Martin and Denise Cody...with flank steak, sautéed mushrooms and basil spaghetti. Fantastic!

  Wine was the color of red burgundy. Translucent like dark rose. On the nose it had stone, bing cherry, strawberry. It lent itself to a more old world style of brunello. reserved, focused, light - more sangiovese and not extracted. Drying tannin that will integrate with time and very well balanced. A bit pricey for what it is, and it is very good.

  Tasted blind and by elimination guessed brunello.
  Red fruited , red cherries, soft oak, smoky edge , big tannin. Ripe, pure and full of character . Young , bright and a touch drying but with a long finish. 90 for now but this is at the start of its journey.

  Masculine, saturating raspberry, musk, leather. Dense, gorgeous raspberry palate. Great finish. 93-4
