Lovely nose here, with earthy red fruit. Black and red fruit on the palate. This probably doesn’t have any upside at this point, but it is very nice tonight.

A few Brunelli - 1995: Earthy nose, with what struck me as tree bark. Licorice, leather accents. Soft, tart and fruity. Decent acidity. Elegant. I like it.

Compared to the 97 Capanna Brunello and the 96 Poliziano Nobile de Montepulciano, this showed less fruit and more acid. Leaner with dark tones, and some leather. We both liked this one. Somewhat straight forward, and not very complex but enjoyable. My buddy, Eric, thought it showed young, but I don't see it getting better.

Only one, buy in Montalcina 2005 during a trip in Italy. Many beautiful notes of licorice, prunes and leather. Lovely well-aged wine ...
