Wonderful traditionally made Brunello that is obviously young but already showing great potential. Soft and brooding, it has cherry blossom and black raspberry on the nose with deeper richer fruit on the palette. The characteristic acidity is there to keep things bright with underlying spice box flavors to round out the bunch. Give it at least 5 more years for the flavors to fully develop.

Winemaker's Notes:

This is a nicely balanced wine with bright cherry and berry flavors that are offset by sweet spice, almond and toasted oak. The wood elements already show integration and will continue to diminish with time. 91 points. -Wine Enthusiast
