Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Nice sweet and sour cherries, at times liquor like, ripe blackberries, dusty limestone, slight tar quality, elegant and smooth.

Jan 9th, 2016Dry sour cherries cranberries, strawberries, tannin tar, black licorice, saddlewood, wood dust, acidity could be better, a quirky herbaceousness. Still needs some time in bottle.

May 15th, 2014Very lovely. Well balanced. Tannins were nice and soft. Warm red fruits came off with some airtime and this was very pleasant to drink. Little rougher second day from ETO but still pretty good. Glad I waited on this bottle
