Medium garnet red with medium viscosity. Beautiful nose with notes of smoke, red cherries and charred wood. Delicious palate, with a lovely medium body and dry long finish. Well integrated acidity and moderate tannins (6/10). Earthy, rustic and a tad savory throughout. A little bit of red fruits floating around. Drink till 2022. Would love to try newer vintages of this. Excellent Brunello.

Big bright fruit. Very different from the other Brunellos and caters well to a California palate. Loved it.
