Bright red. Perfumed aromas and flavors of pink flowers, sour red cherry and strawberry. Fresh and juicy but also dense and deep, this boasts captivating sugar-acid-tannin balance. Finishes long and perfumed; despite its sneaky concentration and size, it also has a light-on-its-feet quality that is very typical of this wine. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, April 2018)

Great drinking Brunello that is showing good balance, aromatics with its bright dark berry fruit, spice, dried herbs, menthol, tobacco & violets

First red of night and paired nicely with cheese. Tobacco cherry dominate with earthy truffle overtones. Complex. Very nice smooth tannins almost unnoticeable.
