Dark tart fruit with tobacco and intense slightly pruney fruit. On the palate powerful and zest. Packs a punch

Apr 1st, 2020A punchy nose with violets, cherry, sour notes. On the palate, noticeable tannin, tobacco, intense cherry and kirsch. Still dense. A punchy wine- very young.

BYOB by Joe and Pat. This was eerily similar to the Guado al Tasso. Lots of finesse and dried fruit. Smokey and in its secondary characteristic phase.

So very good! Lots of stuffing. Great fruit, structure and acid.

2020 vintage. Too many overt overtures towards Napa cab to ignore/dismiss, Get back to me when you're serious. 2.11.26.

Dark cherries, blackberries, tobacco, cinnamon, and cola. Lovely bouquet and full-mouth feel. Earthy with a long finish.

Delicious Brunello, but needed some time to open up and probably a little too young to drink. Pure beam of cherry and black plum and definitely floral. Elegant and refined. The tannins we almost silky after a few hours. Not sure I agree with the 97 points from Wine Spectator, but still a pretty stellar Brunello from the fantastic 2016 vintage. Will hold onto my other bottles for a few years before trying again.
