Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L

"This and the Pertimali Brunello were my two favored wines to drink throughout our dinner at Haru.Medium to deep garnet-brick. Cinnamon and black pepper aromas season the dried plum and red berry compote nose. The palate is full bodied but appears very elegant with seriously soft, velvety tannins and medium+ acidity. Very long finish with a pleasant savory / earthy character." Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Journal, Jan 2009
Provenance: The Courchevel Cellar
Notes: 6cm, Very lightly bin soiled, lightly scuffed, lightly torn, very lightly bin soiled, very lightly damp stained, very lightly mold stained, lightly scuffed, lightly torn label. Signs of slight past seepage.
