Alex Shaw, JJ Buckley, August 2011

Dark purple core with a ruby rim. Classic Tuscan nose of cassis, dark cherry and violets, with more subtle notes of cedar and earth. Firm tannins provide structure and are quite prominent at this stage, but with air, this wine gained weight to providing more balance. With excellent length, this shows what an underrated vintage 2005 is for Brunello. Give it another 1-2 years in the bottle and then enjoy it over the next decade.

($48) Executed in a plush modern style, this opulent Brunello offers tones of black chocolate, espresso, toast, cherry and leather. The wine's appearance is dense and dark and there's power and determination on the close. It's also slightly sweet and very succulent with enduring flavors of plump cherry. Drink after 2015.

($60) Offers blackberry and flowers on the nose. Full-bodied, with firm, chewy tannins and a focused, polished finish of ripe, fresh fruit. Tight right now. Needs bottle age to open. Best after 2011. 2,500 cases made.
