Not as balanced as I would like... fruit forward but lacking acid I typically expect from Brunello l. Enjoyable wine, but wouldn't peg it as Brunello

Leaner and still powerful wine by its acids and tannins albeit not really showing yet what it should be. Kind of a adolescent shy stage maybe for 2010.

10' Casanova DI Neri Bruello Montalcino Sangiovese. Delicious bottle of wine for a late lunch. Could use a few more years in bottle. We still had no problems finishing it. The group wanted me to purchase the 10. I wonder if I should of purchased the 2007 for 4 euros more🤔.

Sour fruit. Mossy tannins. Needs a few more years to balance out but should be a star

Yes that's Rudolf. No his nose does not turn red until his 3rd glass. 2010 Brunellos living up to the hype even as babies

2010 vintage was a knockout home run. Smooth, typical brunello but much better

On first opening appeared over the hill, with dark fruit and some chocolate; but lacked complexity and depth. Sat 24 hrs room temp no air, retasted= much better! More open. Prune nose, tangy fruit in the mouth, noticeable tannins, some dark complexity.
