Gorgeous energy and depth from this single vineyard bottling. Wild cherry and blackberry meld with leather, tobacco and mineral notes that build beautifully in the glass. The structure shows classic Brunello backbone. Powerful yet graceful tannins that frame the concentrated fruit. Outstanding length with savory herbs and blood orange on the finish. Built for decades, drink 2030-2035.
