This is a spectacular wine, still young and needs time but after an hour and half starts to deliver on his great potential. Deep dark red almost black, complex rich nose with coffee, chocolate, cedar wood, notes of smoked oak, black cherries and mediterranean herbs. Full rich body, tannins are still tight and need time to evolve and open up, acidity is optimal and will carry this wine for at least another decade. Finish is long and elegant. A truly remarkable wine, my score 92, drink to 2027

Luscious flavor profile of cherry, spice, and roses. Velvety and silky, a great accompaniment to lasagna. Brunello is always a favorite of mine!
