Come into its own beautifully. Lots of red fruit and a nice long finish with a bit of pepper.

Tart cherries, very acidic, good tannins. Savoury and earthy.

Big and brooding but lovely sweetness of black fruit balanced out wall of leather and funk and tannin. Will age beautifully. Great

Better than I remember as I previously said it wasn't quite ready (just 6 months ago)--but it's very good today. Although I expected it be a bit rough given its youth, it was silky smooth with cherry and plum on the palate. Medium tannins. Very nice expression of Brunello.
