Decanted for 4 hours. Delicious: we had a bottle about a year ago and I was worried it had gone over the hill. No! Fantastic. Farmyard and raspberries on the nose, huge fruit with silky tannins, smoky black fruit on the finish. Delicious. Only 1 bottle left......

Decanted for about 90 minutes. Dark garnet in colour, remarkably little bottle age on the edge. Composty farmyard nose. Still big and fruity with good elegant tannins running through. Long. dark dark fruit. A lovely bottle with still 5+ years left.

Restaurant purchase. Note from memory. PNP. Color dark garnet. Nose shows some dusty minerality but primarily rich dark fruit. On palate this has requisite structure (tannin and acid) to last but the substantial fruit weight totally balances the structure. Given the significant ripeness and richness of this wine there was absolutely no sign of heaviness or too much alcohol. Really very good, no sign of age and I think plenty of life ahead. We really enjoyed this tonight.

Wonderful memories of this wine from a meal in Florence. It did not disappoint tonight. Big fruit, well integrated tannins, interesting fruit in the finish. Long and succulent.

Flat and tired, though Sangiovese acidity still keeps the wine alive. Tasted at Gustavino wine bar in Florence
