Nice, well-made, straightforward Brunello. Savory notes of iodine, balsamic, rocky loam, and old furniture compete with sweet, dark cherry on the nose. I like the palate even more, as it seems a little more youthful than the nose. Full and rich, loads of earthy dark cherry fruit. Some chalky, ripe tannins help it cling to the sides of the mouth a bit but don’t intrude. Not the most complex but gives you its moneys worth.

Opulent fruit, soft tannins, fragrant anise, rosemary, sage, toasty notes. Very good. #garagiste

Snagged up the last bottle at cost for dinner in Bologna. Cassis, cherry, tobacco, medium tannins, acidity.
