This Brunello is medium dark red in color. The nose shows cherry and cassis aromas, draped in anise, cedar, vanilla and a layer of smoke. The palate is fruity and carries a good acidity and tannic structure. A spicy streak cuts through with an herbal character. The finish is long and brings the savory aspect back for a reminder.

Amazing Brunello! Deep red color. Hearty aromas of red/black berries, violets, lavender, grilled rosemary and pine. In the mouth, the dark fruits (cherry and plum) lead the way with hints of black licorice, and iron. Firm and complex. Tannins are tight but well integrated. Beautiful length. Classic! Thank You Kasey and Arpit!

Delightful! Tannic and acidic, but has a dark cherry/currant-ness to it. Slightly smoky but barely. Felt like making a random weeknight feel special so we enjoyed this and it was perfect!
