Flirts with, but does not quite enter orange wine territory. The skins definitely make their presence felt, but there is also a range of citrus and flowers, a bit of nuttiness — 6 years ago
A little past it's prime, however fun to taste. Tons of muted secondary and tertiary flavors. Mushroom, leather, tobacco, tea, earth. Muted red fruits. Medium acidity, tannins, body. Fun to compare old brunello vs new! This must have been fantastic 3 years ago. — 9 years ago

2020/4. Quite floral - I’d like to try this again next to some Palazzone, which I remember as much more nutty. — 6 years ago

Well balanced, and enough nose that I could enjoy it even with a cold. — 10 years ago
Graphite, violets, black pepper and fresh blue, dense tannins on the center palate. Really happy with it. — 12 years ago

Nose is very unique: Latex gloves and cognac, Tiva said a gas fire, coffee or fresh coca, dark chocolate covered raspberries, wet moss, leather and velvet. It takes one to a Brookstone Store in NYC in the early 00s. Medium bodied, with the amber color visibly impacted by the age. It took a while to open up, with the tannins still very present and grippy at the end, with notes of coca chocolate, brandy, dark ripe plum, fig, coffee, wood chips, ground beef and a slightly sour malolactic element, though the energy and alcohol freshness still remains, along with a slightly mulchy finish. — 16 days ago
