  A serious Brunello. Savory and complex. Pine resin, cherry, grilled rosemary, spice. Good length. Good structure. Needs 1-2 hours of air now at least. Just as good if not better on day 2.

  Same notes as the last bottle, polished off the last one in the cellar. Drinking very well. Paired with a ribeye roast.
  Drank this bottle over 2 days. Notes of black tea, a la Barolo on day 2.

  I thought it was perhaps a little early but it is drinking very well now. Notes of cherries and camphor on the nose. Light to medium weight, red fruits and berries, followed by some cedar, leather and baking spices.

  quite frankly disappointing at this time
  no integration, backwards, and no better the next day
  I am hoping this is shut down or a bad bottle
  if not, a mistake

  always very solid to drink--perhaps still young as missing the multi-layered openness that I like in brilliant wines, but great nonetheless
