Sublime and by far the best of the case so far. Opened closed and reticent but then unfurled a peacocks tail of aromas and flavours. Red cherry, cassis, leather, sandalwood, spicy oak, and black fruit. Acid and tannin in perfect balance with the deep and seductive fruit. So much life and energy - the acid and fine tannins turbocharging the flavour. Seamless and so long. With Racquel before her Bali trip.

Insanely polished. Almost too perfect that it lacks personality.

Another beauty from Stella. Her wines consistently show an elegance unmatched in Montalcino. IMO the top producer in the region.

Hint of mushroom liquorice black tea, plummy red sweet cherry fruit. Firm tannin structure , a powerful yet detailed Brunello

A decent Brunello that is a nice accompaniment to gemilli pasta with a walnut chèvre pesto with a touch of lemon zest
