A light style very smooth and silky - was incredible with broccoli in padella

Amazing Brunello '09. Silky smooth, brick color showing. Great mineral-driven nose with black olives. Tastes incredible, pairs excellently with tomato-based dishes. My wife said it was a "highway by which the flavors of the meal were transported into her." I'll have to have her write my stuff more often.
