2021 vintage. Last tasted 3.25.26 (9.0). Liked this time even less. Not feeling this vintage. 4.29.26. — a month ago
We had a vertical tasting with 2007. Both excellent. 07 lighter in color. 07 a little more fragrant. Both had tastes of leather tobacco and black cherry. Both medium bodied. Going forward, I will drink Brunello sooner than 20 years. Some fruit got lost a bit — 22 days ago
Shoe leather on the nose. Red fruit on the front. Light tannic structure. Not much body. What body there is fades on the end. Short finish. Except for the slight scent of mouldy shoe leather on the nose, there’s nothing objectionable about this wine, but it’s weak and watery and without much character. Meh. But wait!…
I left the remainder in the bottle, and 24 hours later it had developed quite nicely. The nose had developed into unripe cherries—losing the moldy leather smell. Red fruit developed on the front, and the tannic structure improved. And it developed a longer finish. I upped my rating from an 8.6 to 9.0.

Somewhat young. But very nice Brunello. — a day ago
Decente. Más cuerpo de los Italianos que usualmente bebo. — 24 days ago
Starting to show hints of oxidative notes adding to sense of complexity so his to drink up. 13.5 ABV — a month ago

Medium-bodied with notes of dark cherry, plum, sage, and cloves on the nose. The palate has some dried fruit, cocoa, and anise as well. Unfortunately the finish is a little out of balance, with mineral notes, bitterness, and slight alcohol flavor overshadowing the fruit and spice. Still tasty overall though. — 2 days ago
