93-94. Full of blackberries, blueberries and chocolate flavors. A hint of pistachios and grilled herbs. Very young tannins and quite a lot of acidity on the finish. I think it will be better in 3-7 years.

Very disappointed with this Grand cru. Lemon dominates with good acidity but mineral bitterness and flintstone in the dry finish are not appealing. Not anything close to what I like in a riesling, and this one is a Grand cru….

Me:93-94, wife:95. Intense ripe cherry with milk chocolate in a very oaky mouth with dry tannins. Not as elegant as the Tenuta Nuova but an excellent brunello nonetheless.
