Open, double decant (yes put it back in the bottle after you pour yourself a glass). Put the cork back and drink the second night. Just wow. So smooth and pretty.

Oy. This bottle's pricing is riding on the coat tails of the region. Confused sangiovese masquerading as a riesling. rubbery / erasery and distinctly weird. Drinkable but downright disappointing when you're looking forward to Brunello.

Delicious Brunello. Stewed dark plumbs, dark berries, hints of licorice. Still has plentiful tannins and a strong spine.

Rich dark cherry is nicely balanced by mouthwatering acidity. Very elegant

Un brunello abbastanza ruffiano, dolce, balsamico, con poca polpa, una buona sapidità e freschezza
