They will say “ Burgundian”. An hour of air with a little chill, a nice nose of blood, forest, morello cherries, spices, everything knit together well. The palate , especially against Marcella Hazan’s Bolognese, gives really nice acid/tannin balance and then the fruit.
Or should I say the fruit and tertiary flavors, sense. Nice middling forest floor, cherries(dried), some leather. A lovely BdM. I wouldn’t say for very long holding, but delicious now and the next few years.

Really a lovely brunello. In a perfect place. The fruit is quite expressive and gives a lot. Tannins are certainly there but balanced with great acidity on the finish. Nice suggestion from the bartender at I sodi paired with a pork chop and lamb/mushroom pasta.

This was really lovely but I lost my sense of smell due to covid the next day so I probably didn’t enjoy it as much as I could have

Very good. Opened up slowly after initial tightness.
