Ruby-ish color. Dense. Nice nose. Notes of red fruits, dry brush, dusty earth and some old desk wood. Nice but slightly dry fruit in the mouth. Tannins resolved and mostly integrated. Nice showing.

From the Count's holdings, this did not disappoint. Extremely ripe and youthful. Evolved a bit over the night but this is certainly a ripe, concentrated style of wine.

Dark tawny. Almost opaque. Bright fruit forward nose. Notes of ripe black cherries, flowers, some wood and a little cough syrup. Silky and smooth in the mouth. Lasting finish. Good stuff

Beautifully evolved and partially dried red berry aromas jump from the glass in this aged yet lively Brunello, where sage and Galestro-soil components hets my full attention. Elegant yet structured with flavors expanding nicely on the ripe and mature finish. Ready but no rush.

Firmly in that land between a Pinot and a Cab. Lighter but full-flavored and complex. Sweet tomatoes, red fruit and cigar box.
