From Jim Deitch York home (give to us by Judy).
Shared with Langdon, Max, Ruth, Eddy, Kayla.
Extremely dry, earthy and sophisticated (according to Langdon). I for one didn’t like it, esp the more I drank it. Max really liked it

Ripe fruit balance. Tannin grip is low. Lots of balance with the age. 2010

Don’t recall the last Garagiste wine that has met the email hyperbole. But this was fucking good. Especially for the price!

Really nice Brunello. Some fleeting moments of greatness but overall don't see how this was #13 wine of the year 2015 by WS.
