2008 vintage. Dark ruby garnet in the glass. Nose and palate of black cherry and black tea. Firm velvety tannins and medium plus acidity. Dark brooding finish while the tongue recovers. In a good place now.

This is good but just not what I expect from a Brunello. Better after sitting for a couple of hours.

Big brunello, bold fruit, complex on the finish. Still relatively young, be sure to decant
