We had the 2006 Vintage on 7/17/21. More minerality and mushroomy on the bouquet. It took a while for the tannins to smooth out. That is just remarkable. When they smoothed. A more leathery wine morphed into more raspberry and floral. This wine has more years to go.

A fantastic wine. Well balanced, medium bodied, great finish. Was great after 2 hours of aeration. Red cherry, chocolate and even some leather on the palate.

The 2006. Soft rich elegant plum, teak and pepper. Lovely linger.

Dense and quite thick palate with robust oak. Notes of tobacco, dark cherry, garrigue. Masculine and tight. Good. Not a wine of finesse.

A pleasant aroma of pepper and dark fruit. A full body composition. Complex round taste with a clean finish. Earthy notes and flavorful tannins. Would definitely have it again!!

Wow!!! Phenomenal Bottle of Brunello. Dark cherry, subtle vanilla, earthy, and an interesting floral hint that keeps me coming back... Thanks @Baseline_Wine #yegwine
