95+ ST. "Full, dark red. Ethereal, multidimensional aromas of redcurrant, plum, tar, tartufi, tobacco, cedar and coconut; this reminded me of a maturing bottle of Lafite. At once thick and penetrating, with superb concentration, depth and sheer vinosity. Bracing but ripe acidity. Firmly tannic finish features explosive fruit. Essence of Brunello."
