Medium light red with a touch of brick color. Juicy, ripe light red cherry fruit with grippy tannins and good acidity. Well balanced Brunello that tends to be more elegant than powerful, which I like. Good producer, but their prices have gone up a lot lately.

6 hour decant but still pretty tannic. I did not get the complexity that I was expecting—fruit, black tea etc. fairly one note and probably not ready.
This was purchased in advance of our tuscany trip. I am just not finding loads of Italian wines that I love (Piemonte region excluded). I hope when we get there I will find the magic.

8 hour decant. Medium body with dried ripe red cherry fruit, refined tannins and good acidity. Just entering into prime drinking window. Well made but pricey.

Very nice freshness and volume of red fruit. A bit of bitter tannins in the finish detract from an even higher score.
