Declassified Brunello? Yes please. Cherry and cedar and leather and herbs. Juicy and persistent.

Declassified Brunello anyone? Killer stuff. Bright cherry, tight tannins, dusty sandalwood and leather.

Elegant, soft well balanced Rosso. Did not produce a Brunello in 2011so captures all of the best fruit!

Clearly Sangiovese, but heavier and warmer, reflective of the vintage. In the end was neither here nor there, so least drunk of the group - probably about right

Single sitting, downed the bottle. Well done, pointy, fruit, good sango.
