Here is a
sophisticated, very elegant style of Brunello with gorgeous aromatics. This
wine opens up with aromas of cherry, plum, tobacco, exotic spices, violet,
cedar wood and earthy notes. On the mouthfeel, full bodied (alcohol coming in
at 14%), dry, rich texture, good energy in the mouth, fresh acidity and grainy,
chewy tannins. Beautifully robust, complex finish with great flavours, mixing
power (tannins) with elegance. Drinking nicely now (after 1 hour in decanter), should
age brilliantly over the next 3 to 5 years. This wines strength for me is its
aromatics and finish, very enjoyable and strongly recommended, score 92 points
