Fine laced, yet powerful. Maybe the greatest value in Brunello? Francesco! Raise your prices!

Paired well with our beef. Smooth as silk. Great balance on the mid-palette, with notes of coffee and raisins. Mineral driven, with a nice sweet finish.,

Rich. Plum, blueberry, spice, vanilla. Dry, well balanced acidity (mid), mid- tannin. Well made, both quite nice to enjoy itself or together with food. abv14.5%
