  This shows classic Sangiovese cherry and some dark fruit, with notes of leather and earth on the medium finish; light tannins and moderate acidity. This is simple and light for a Brunello, and it's not worth holding any longer. It was an average to below average value at a little under $40.

  Losing some structure now and probably wasn't a good choice to follow a 2006 Ravello Barolo which was much more structured and tannic. It was an interesting combo with our dinner but we should have had this wine first in retrospect. Still very enjoyable and very sofr.

  Much like previous bottle. Not bad but I didn't find it very interesting.

  Lots of dark fruit and some leather. Ok. Might have been better with a bit more age, but probably not. Not enough complexity.
