Very evolved for its age, but delicious. Nice body, minerality, floral notes.

Tobacco, eucalyptus, and vanilla on the nose with lovely savory fig and a metallic or wrought iron mineral quality in the mouth. The acidity is quite high (med ++) and the tannins are grippy. As it keeps opening it gets even more interesting. I imagine this will age for quite some time more!

If you have to blind traditional, young Brunello, it might as well be Ciacci.

Fabulous, but less finesse and depth compared with the Collosorbo.

Dried cherries, leather, tobacco, sweet anise, velvet tannins. Lingering finish. Beauty!

Dried cherries and pepper. Tannins feel like my mouth is wearing a nice merino sweater, but without an undershirt. Not getting a lot of acidity. Dark chocolate on the finish.
