TASTING NOTE: A textbook Brunello, mingling cherry and berry fruit with bitter almond, iron, sanguine and tobacco notes. Well-structured and harmonious, this should rein in the tannins with a few years of aging. Best from 2020 through 2033. Score - 93 (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, June 15, 2017) |
