2015 vintage. Single vineyard 100 % Sangiovese from south facing hill full of schist stones. Hand picked and sorted. 14 months in French oak tonneaux then 4 months in concrete vats then 6 months in bottle.
Impressive nose of cherry kirsch, new leather and savoury baker’s spice.
Taste wise, layers of ripe strawberry and cherry with a touch of earthiness and stones. Brilliant mouth watering acidity with freshness. I could drink this every week.
We made our own dough and had duck, local B.C. Matsutake mushrooms and grilled onion pizza with this wine. — 5 years ago

Drinking the 2007 in 2024. Light bouquet with hints of oak and earth. Deep dark fruit with medium tannins but a smooth finish. Love the oak and leather notes! Deep dark color and flavors. — a year ago
Ruby red, dark fruits. Medium body. Crushable. — 4 years ago
Surprisingly approachable for a Brunello despite a richness that the wine exudes. Lots of forest floor alongside of nicely structured tannins that evolve in the glass. A little more alcoholic than I normally expect from this varietal. Comparable in many ways to the white label of Casanova di Neri… — 4 years ago
Perfect for a hot summer evening. Sipping and waiting for a good friend for dinner. Been too long! — 8 years ago

Really nice Brunello from a very small producer. 45 euro at the winery and it compares very favorably to the nearby Casanova de Neri. — 8 years ago

Opens up with bright fruit - cranberries, apples, but then takes off into smoky tones underlying licorice, chocolate and carob. An initial acidity also blends into smooth tannins and a long finish. — 9 months ago
