Fantastic. Over delivers for the price in my opinion. Bright notes of red cherries, currants, flowers, and savory herbs. Great acid and fine tannins. There's a lot of umami character that's super graceful in nature. Meat, leather, tobacco, blood orange, spice cake. So much juicy acid. With a soft chill it's incredibly hard to keep around

2014. Refined, elegant but perhaps lacking enough material. Time may prove me wrong. Still, this has Brunello "bones."

Very light easy drinking. Nice after a heavy wine.
