Decent sangiovese and opens nicely. Went great with red meat which brought out the acidity

Darker berry fruit. Oak is showing primary. Wine is showy.

Kirsch, heavy herbaceous notes, a touch of leather and cedar. Silky soft tannins. Delicious wine and I can't wait to try the 2010! - 2009 vintage

Nice and ripe, rich, coffee, chocolate, bright slightly jammy fruit, touch metallic on the nose, making way towards something a little floral. Lovely on the palate.

Perfect classic brunello. Decanted for about 30 min and it's in drinking window now and probably for the next 2 to 5 yrs.

Still has a plenty of life left. Traditional style and flavor profile. Tannins have soften and drinking well now. Decanted for 30 minutes.
