The nose shows; poached strawberries, cooked cherries, some blackberries, just a hint of bubble gum, some sandy, wet, black earth, red & pink roses.

The palate is ripe and juicy & light bodied. Black cherries, strawberries raspberries, pomegranate, some blackberries & black raspberries, hints of blood orange, loamy sandy, limestone, dark spice with a touch heat, hints of licorice & cola, very fine, dry, soft tannins, red and pink roses, red flowers, beautiful acidity and a pleasant, elegant, easy finish that lasts a full minute. — 12 days ago

Gonna have a hard time leaving my last three bottles laying down for any period of time. Chicken parm and a truffle oil pasta are a righteous pairing. — 2 months ago

Reddish in color.

Fruity nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with red currants, fresh cherries, light oak, herbs, light earth, spices, chocolates and peppercorn.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This 6 year old feels very young at the moment. Fruity with mild complexity. Soft and smooth. Elegant with good structure.

Needs time to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Headline: “damn near perfect” not dry, not bitter, not sweet, not watery, just lovely balance all around. If you’re looking for a defining characteristic it’s that there is none. Some would say the greatest designs goes unnoticed. I would also say that the greatest wines should lay in a similar vein. There is no one flavor or characteristic about it that is overpowering the rest. — 2 months ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Solid on Day 1 with some VA that blew off and this was rocking by Day 2. The 2010 pours a deep garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with very light staining of the tears. No signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing, with heady notes of Morello cherry, blackberry, black plum, bergamot, tomato leaf, red flowers, coffee, dried green herbs, and soft baking spices. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. Alcohol is high but in balance. Certainly a Brunello of fine character. Distinctive and yet totally true to its sense of place. There’s a near palpable density. Modern but sexy. Drink now with patience and through 2035+. — 3 months ago
