deep clean earth and smooth mixed wild berry. Some gravitas. Full mid palate and has a full mouthfeel for a brunello. Let stand and decant for sediment.

This is a perk-your-head-up Brunello. Opened for four hours, decanted for two hours. All manner of cherry, but spiced with cedar and the right measure of barely-rounded tannins. A treat. Maybe better that it followed a mealtime 2008 BdM, as the latter complemented the rib-eyes well, where this would have been more like competition. As it was, it was terrific with a cheese course.

Beautiful bottle. Silky tannins, deep red fruit, clean earth. Didn't want the bottle to end.

Excellent, and in a perfect drinking window. No off notes: a beautiful bottle, on point fro aged BdM.
