Excellent Brunello with soft tannins, blackberries, suede, earth .. no manure notes .. slightly austere but with preserved flavors at 14 years of age!

Excellent 2006 Brunello for Valentine's Day ❤️🍷 a structured wine with hints of tobacco and dark berries. Another great recommendation and acquisition from La Cambusa, Stressa Italy.

Dried sour cherry, dark chokolate, leather, spices, some meat, earth, minerals, smooth and silky tannins, complexity, long and nice aftertaste. Love it.
