Complex aromas, initially of red fruit and licorice with a discrete hint of vanilla; a minute or two of patience is rewarded by aromas of coffee, hazelnut, and plum jam. Its softness is well balanced on the palate; it is silky and caressing, giving the sensation of fullness and tone. The long finish is marked by notes of spice and jamminess, a sign of greatness to come.

Dense aromatics with black plum, game, leather, menthol, oak and anise notes open this full-throttle red. The plate shows impressive depth of flavor with tart plum and bitter chocolate notes, as well as fine fruit to acid balance. The long, dry, even finish wraps it up beautifully with black fruit and bitter chocolate notes.
Wine Spectator

Chunky red, with aromas of berry, mint, cherry and wet earth. Full-bodied and velvety, with lots of fruit and a long, minty finish. A delicious example of the quality to be found in the '95 Brunello vintage. 46,000 cases made.
