This was singing last night. Nice nose of mature cherries and spice box. Mid palate displays density and weight. Packed with ripe cherries and a hint of tobacco, complemented with a moderate tannin structure. Oak treatment was in the background. Finished with length and a hint of soft brown sugar. Acidity is still prominent so I assume you could continue to hold this for another 7 years with ease. — 2 months ago

Good time to drink! It has fruit, structure, tannins, earth and is well balanced. We opened 3 hours before drinking and then decanted for 90 minutes. Then it opened up nicely in the glass. Delish!

2006. Delightful example of a Brunello with plenty of life to spare. Fabulous, does not disappoint! — 6 years ago

This was sailing… meaty nose of rich burnt ends coupled with plum jam. Palate was viscous and mineral driven. S little too much acidity with a slightly citrus finish. Nice juxtaposition with the Siro, but this was always destined for second place tonight. — 2 months ago

Delicious with our rich mixed meat ragu. Gorgeous development of leather and mahogany notes but still some rich fruit left. Tannins there but integrated. — 7 months ago

No formal notes. Sweet mix of black/red fruit, ripe yet assertive tannins, nice mid-palate juice, leathery. Structured and quiet now, shows potential. — 4 years ago

2016 vintage. Decanted with very little sediment and tasted over the course of 2.5 hours. Medium body. Initially, very tight. Opened up somewhat but never really gained the high ground. Oodles of dark fruit mixed with enough structure. Revisit in 4-5 years. 11.28.24. — 5 months ago

Jammy and smoky on the nose. Light, juicy, a bit of minerals and tannin — 3 years ago

Well made wine overshadowed tonight by the Radici and Siro Pacenti wines. I am glad they have stopped using Cab in this wine from 2013. — 5 years ago
