Spectacular! A nice balance of sweet , ripened fruit and an oaky, leathery, maturity. Just ,"holy sh-t!" Treat yourself. Life's too short to drink cheap wine.

Intenso al naso e elegante in bocca. Forse ancora una punta di acidità da levigare nel 2008.

Vegas, Sinatra restaurant. A heavier side similar to a cab. Beautiful Italian red. Silky smooth and aroma.

I prefer Banfi's 2001 & 2004 Brunello's, but you really can't go wrong with this wine. Decant, let it open for 30 to 45 minutes, then enjoy. A fantastic wine under $60. Definitely worth trying. Cheers!!
