Medium Ruby with berry fruit, fragrant spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and licorice with notes of smoky pepper spice, tangy mineral feel. Fine drying tannins, medium+ savory finish ending with a vanilla, tobacco and earthy note. Nice! Drink now and over the next few years.

Happy New Year!
Scents of dried cherry, leather, tobacco leaf, and cedar Incredible balance with sweet cherry, earth, and a touch leather. Long finish dominated by cherry and drying tannins.
4/22/9/5/4 +50=94 pts.
JS went 98 on this one. A fantastic wine, bit cant quite get there.

Earth, black cherry, leather, and tobacco on the nose. Very well integrated red fruit, black cherry, and earth, backed by medium + tannins. Long finish. A pleasure to drink.

The first ‘13 Brunello i’ve tried. I was drinking ‘11s the other night and this is a pretty stark contrast. Big and fruit forward, rich and savory. Plum, blackberry, and earth. Clocking at 14.5%

2012 Vintage In search of the one wine so complete and perfect that it makes me cry. This one came close. Wonderful nose with floral and dark red fruit notes. Dark chocolate and tobacco with Old World rustic earthy flavors. Smooth finish that continues the balancing act from the nose and throughout the palette. Suckling rated it 94pts and I heartily agree
