I think the CT window is right on this time, for this wine. Lovely earth and wood and spice on this wine. Incredible depth, and finish. Power with finesse, old world flavors (not fruit forward) and tannins for another decade of aging (but don't wait TOO long if you like a little heft and power). Delicious. Find it, if you can.

Exactly what you hope for in a glass of Brunello. Not sure why CT shows a drinking window starting in 2021, because this is showing really well right now. Smooth, soft, good fruit, and classic flavor profiles for a tuscan wine. Great with pizza too!

Fantastic!! Medium plus body. Grippy balances tannins. Exemplary Brunello
