Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona
Riserva Santa Caterina d'Oro Vigna di Pianrosso Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Another age-defying beauty, years to go. Great nose of red flowers and black cherry. Delicate and powerful on the palate, black earth tones and nice wood still evident. Beautiful.

Nov 14th, 2021Fantastic. A brick red in the glass. Nose is refined with dust, roses, red fruits and tar. Palate is fairly high-toned, with graphite and dark cherries. Nice finish and in a great place now.

Mar 28th, 2016Nice wine, but probably better a few years ago. At this point the acid is peaking a bit more than ideal (and that’s from someone who really likes acid). But still a great reminder of why well aged brunello is quite delicious and a great food pairing.
