Had with Bucatini and Bolonese sauce. Dark fruit and fig on the nose. Beautifully balanced - rich and delicious. I bought this in 2010 and have kept in in a temperature and humidity controlled cellar. I'm a little surprised it showed this well. I have 3 more bottles that I hope will last a few more years but there's no reason to wait.

3 times lucky -after 2 bottles with faults, this was a nice one. A mixture of tertiary aromas with some subtle dark red fruits. Well rounded and balanced - delicious and easy to drink.

Shared with friends during Chianti tasting. Showed good evolution, some herbal notes, jammy fruit on the nose. The palate presented fine tannins with good acidity preserving a core fruit that was persistent.

Perfectly mature but drink soon. Dark fruit; great in the mouth; lingers. Warm with moderate complexity.
