Very dark Brunello. Just breathtaking sour cherry and savory earth notes mixed with leather and liquorice. Still young. Big structure and dusty tannin. Super long finish and cannot resist another pour. Impressive.

Translucent dark ruby core slight brick outer hue. The nose has a good intensity with dried floral and fruit notes with subtle barnyard. The palate is balanced with integrated tannins. Body is medium to full and the finish adds to the complexity.

I usually love this but wasn't feeling it all today. It was a bit harsh and tannic. Not my favorite.
