Gorgeous wine. Black cherry, tobacco, earth with a long finish. Velvety mouthfeel.

So textbook, so ethereal - aged Brunello is just on a whole different level. Barely opaque from a generous vintage, big extraction has given way to a more delicate, elegant & nuanced nose of dried herbs, early season cherries, hi-toned note, tobacco leaf, damp Earth, bramble and a strong vein of minerality. Med bodied, just velvet, so seamless w/interplay of tannins & acidity. So much mineral & stone on palate?! I say drink these now.

Delicious dark fruit and spices. Tobacco in there too. Can still go longer in the bottle, but a winner right now for Christmas Eve.
