Really good, serious, intense brunello. Inky dark, slightly hard tannins, and loveliness of old school Brett

Opens up beautifully after decanting, but definitely don't have it before doing so

Enjoying with great pasta at Michaels on Naples. Needed decanting, but very bold brunello with hints of cherry.

Last of my 2006's, time to make some room for the 2010's. Drinking very nice right now. If I had the chance I'd keep this well stocked but I only have room for 30-36 btls!

6.5 out of 10. Very dry. Interesting flavors; floral with some vanilla. Not too expensive at $15 but we won't repeat it. I like wines with more fruit.
