Somewhere just short of its peak. Paired with Pappardelle, pork and beef bolognese.

2007. Holy dusty soil and angry red cherries!! So accessible right now, but so complex.

Purchased at the winery. We did a group day trip tour from Rome to Tuscany. It was March, but the vineyard and its Bose speakers was still a fun attraction. 4.5 years later, having survived a move, among other things, we finally decided to pop it.
Nose: crushed rose petals, children’s cherry robitussin, bittersweet chocolate, forest floor after a campfire nearby.
Palette: raspberry & cherry, leather glove, velvety tannin that is pretty chill. Lighter body compared to other brunello, what sometimes is referred to as “elegance” honestly, kind of like Mozart (where other Brunellos can be like Wagner or something more modern) hehe.
Finish: menthol on the finish

This wine is more special because we acquired it at the vineyard, listening to Mozart during our tasting session with owner, priceless.
