Last of three bottles of this. It’s never been the fruitiest or friendliest Brunello. And it’s still quite tannic, but it’s resolving well and, in my view, at its peak. To wait longer for the remaining tannins to fully drop would be at the expense of the remaining fruit. Color is going brown at the rim. Nice intensity and decent balance right now. Mostly tertiary notes, but there is a core of morphing fruit underneath. Should go well with the Tuscan beef stew (Peposo) I’m making. — 10 days ago

This is a bit more dense and complex on the nose , denser fruits perhaps with some cedar , herbal hints along side the slightly bitter cherries . This fills out more on the palate , is longer and more intense , touch of herbal bitter cherries and pine sap. Really long and fresh . Needs time but has all the qualities to age well over the next 10 years . At Vinous Icons NY , Pier 60 , Feb 2025. — 6 months ago

Really a truly excellent Chianti Classico. Read about this producer in the latest Noble Rot, and was excited to see it at Flatiron to try. This has a real density of fruit and character and wonderful lifting acid. — 6 months ago

Balsamic cloudy maroon glow.

Thick body, restrained nose, easy going groomed tannins.

The usual suspects. Roses, tar, fleshy thick skinned dark cherries and spicy sandalwood. — 8 months ago
