Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

VA, very ripe, tar. Mature.

Vintage 2004

Nice sweet and sour cherries, at times liquor like, ripe blackberries, dusty limestone, slight tar quality, elegant and smooth.

Dry sour cherries cranberries, strawberries, tannin tar, black licorice, saddlewood, wood dust, acidity could be better, a quirky herbaceousness. Still needs some time in bottle.

Dried dark fruit, including tastes of black cherry, dates and plum. This is a MOST amazing Brunello. Super silky. Wow!

Very lovely. Well balanced. Tannins were nice and soft. Warm red fruits came off with some airtime and this was very pleasant to drink. Little rougher second day from ETO but still pretty good. Glad I waited on this bottle

Old wedding present. Not bad

Great Brunello .. nicely aged.. golden Terra-cotta in color with notes of olives, fig, earthy mushrooms with subdued fruit flavors!

Feeling it’s age. Cedar.

Very good - dry, bold- aged well. Drank with linguine alla pirata, but probably pairs better with a beef dish.
