This wine is still a beast. It needed a solid two hours to open up. It’s a rich wine with red fruit, tar and literal mineral. Surprising for a brunello

Dark cherry, plum, licorice & dried herbs that is rich, full bodied, seductive, deeply layered in a velvety texture.

Decanted for 3 hrs. Not a strong nose but great flavors. Very dry at first but continued to open up. Cumin, tar, nutmeg and mint.

Another flawed btl of 06 BM matching the nose that I had recently from the 06 Costanti. Overripe, stewed notes, light finish. I went deep on that vintage when they were released so I hope this won’t be the norm
