Muted nose. Detected faint wood and dark fruits. On the palette, the wine was light and astringent.

2.5 hrs of airtime helped a little, but the patient's vital signs were already faint. Disappointed given the producer and vintage.

Understated for Brunello and very well done. We are a Chianti Classico house, and just love our acid..

The fruit’s mostly gone. Lots of leather, tobacco, scorched earth and hints of strawberry gliding on fine tannin with a medium finish.

Came home just in time for the last sip! Black cherry with minerals and a hint of mocha. Nothing on the front palate but sits wonderfully on the mid palate. Love me some older brunello.

With a little Cavatappi Bolognese. The best.

Enjoyed it on Swee Kee's birthday. An expensive wine - about S$100 now

Elegant with smooth tannins. Lots of raspberry and dark cherry favors. Definitely needs to breathe 30 minutes to an hour. Drank 2004 vintage on 2/24/2017.
