2008 vintage. Dark ruby garnet in the glass. Nose and palate of black cherry and black tea. Firm velvety tannins and medium plus acidity. Dark brooding finish while the tongue recovers. In a good place now.

Transparent garnet in the glass. Black cherry and cedar on the nose. Firm velvety tannins rule the palate of black tea and black cherry. Dark anise finish.

This is good but just not what I expect from a Brunello. Better after sitting for a couple of hours.

Big brunello, bold fruit, complex on the finish. Still relatively young, be sure to decant

Firm structure, balance improved with aeration. Evidence of malolactic fermentation, decent vanilla notes, silky feel.

2007, Citille Di Sopra, Vigna Poggio Ronconi Sangiovese. As good as it gets, powerful aged Brunello. Tons of black fruit with layers of secondary flavors: leather, chalk, mushrooms, dark wet earth. Well balanced and tannins still have a bite.
