After 4-5 hour decant this has been a nice rollercoaster. Started highly tannic and red fruit aroma. Became cranberry flavorz with a lull in tastiness. Finally refreshing on this warm day with a tinge of oak nuttiness. It's much better now and incredible rosso vs others I've had. $24 BevMo — 6 years ago

2016. Just popped and double-decanted. Within minutes it’s singing. Such a classic Brunello nose of deep, dark brandy-macerated cherry fruit, iron, tilled dry earth, warm terra cotta tiles, some tertiary old library furniture notes. Deep and balanced in the mouth, it’s large-framed but has the fruit and enough acid to carry it. Tannins still there but starting to fade into the background. Fairly long finish.
