  A steely acid backbone has preserved this wine and it’s still drinking very well. Very pleasant, well aged Brunello. Needs to breath a bit before the flavors really emerge.
  
  Very light colored, clearly well aged. The nose is quite light. Oregano and balsamic. Would score higher but for that.
  
  Medium body with lively acid and notable but soft tannins all over the cheeks, lips and tongue. Some cherry flavor but its really the oregano and classic brunello balsamic that stand out, with a long finish on the balsamic.

  Medium plus nose is pretty, gorgeous layers of aged flowers, forests floor, balsamic, dried cherry, herbal tones. Palate is grippier than expected, medium plus tannins, leather, tobacco, dried raspberry, herbs like thyme, rosemary, dried roses, dried plum. Finishes dry, acidity does well also, good now, not sure it will improve but feels like it could still open (drank from Coravin). Nice value though for the region, good stuff.

  Slightly cloudy, orange-tinged mid-ruby with a tawny edge. Lovely aromatics - very typical of the fruit-forward Brunello style. Explosive red fruit and floral notes on the nose. Palate dominated by ripe red berries, with just the merest touch of tannins and low to medium acidity. Enjoyable even though it lacks the complexity and distinction of better Brunellos.
