Fruity, tender, quite fresh. Unfortunately had to use quite inappropriate glasses — 19 hours ago

Light ruby with a narrower brighter rim , just hinting at garnet . More floral and lighter red fruit , with strawberry , raspberry and light red cherry , hints of red rose and cedar , slightly stony edge also, will need time to open up . On the palate this has quite a lot more acidity and gritty tannins, red cherry , raspberry , orange rind and a real freshness and elegance . Balanced alcohol and good cherry tinged length . Very balanced and elegant , also pretty young , needs a few more years to open . Probably better in a 5 years or so and will last well a further 5-10 . The most ethereal and poised of the Brunellis in this tasting . — a month ago

Amazing. Bone dry, floral, citrus zest and a richness/texture that only skin contact allows. Perfect match for mushroom asparagus risotto. — 3 months ago

Another Brunello producer I have not tried before - quite nice. Quite restrained - apparently the Brunello comes from higher altitudes which shows. It’s not quite Ragnaie in terms of the high altitude character but it’s a nice wine for sure. Perfect with some local Cinta pork. — 3 years ago

Quite similar colour to the Montosoli , with wider garnet rim than the Lume Spento . Quite dense and darker fruits , more plum , cherry and dried herbs, cedar . On the palate this has more density and extract , more tannin too . Darker fruits , dark cherry , plum , cedar and liquorice . More instense and structured than the others . Really quite intense and long on the palate . Again balanced fresh acidity , a more generous personality than the Montosoli perhaps , juicier , darker fruit. Needs another 5 years and will show well for a further 10-15. — a month ago

Medium ruby , slightly wider ruby, garnet rim . Slightly more closed and serious ,spiced cherries , menthol , liquorice and dried rosemary and thyme . On the palate this shows good red fruits , with raspberry , red cherry , spiced red plum , with dried herbs and a liquorice hint . Quite gritty tannins and fresh acidity , saline tinged finish of good length . This needs a little more time , better in 2-5 years and will show well a further 5 or so — a month ago

Bright orange, no funk. Very clean. Nice grip, perfect tannins for saucy fish, even cotoletta. Lots of acidic length. Versatile and fresh. — 3 years ago

Again slightly wider more garnet rim . More high toned , touches of spiced cherry , again herbal touches, more animal , menthol and a denser personality. Quite dense on the palate , rounder and slightly darker deeper fruit , spiced dark cherry , plum and herbal hints . More body and density in the palate , more juicy but drier more present , grippy tannin also, fresh acidity . After a while this also becomes quite restrained and reserved , showing a more mineral , saline side . Good cedar and mineral tinged length . This is the wine that today has the most hidden , will require patience . Very promising however , impeccably balanced . Needs more time, 5 -8 years or so and will show well a further 10 -15 or so . — a month ago

Clear and bright light ruby , thin garnet rim . Fresh and aromatic rose and light red cherry , touch of light dried herbs with an earthy hint . On the palate this has bright red fruits , pure and elegant, fruit driven with red cherry , spiced red plum , and an earthy , menthol hint . Fresh acidity but with a still relatively juicy mouthfeel. Slightly grippy tannins and just noticable alcohol . Good length and overall balance . Drink now and over the next 5 years or so . — a month ago
