"A vibrant young Brunello with stature and elegance, this wine feels silken and supple. Its power hits up front, subsumed into the amplitude of the texture with the underlying gentleness of sangiovese. Decant this for grilled lamb. Joshua Greene, April 1, 2011 "
"Very ripe plum and strawberry aromas follow through to a full body, with soft and silky tannins and a long finish. Sweet juicy fruit on the finish."
"Good mdium red. Aromas of plum, tobacco, herbs, smoke, and musky underbrush. Suave, supple and fairly dry, with a pliant, accessible texture framed by ripe aciditywith complicating notes of spices, meat and bonfire. Very sangiovese."
"The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino requires a considerable amount of time for its core of superripe fruit to emerge from under a wall of imposing tannins. This medium to fullbodied offering shows notable length on the palate. Suggestions of smoke, licorice, and minerals and leather linger on the potent close. Antonio Galloni, June 2, 2009"
