Mature yet still vividly colored this wine erupts from the glass with notes of rose petal, hyacinth and tar. On the pallet there is ample berry fruit and a bit of spice leading to relaxed tannins. The finish quite long ending in leather and earth. Drink this now as its already showing better than expected 5 years ago

Unfortunately my bottle was spoiled.
Definitely great flavors masked by the vinegar but the wine had turned brown.

Smooth, elegant Brunello, just the right age. Just a great wine and great example of well-made Brunello.
