The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is quite attractive. Sweet tobacco, crushed flowers and licorice are some of the many nuances that are woven together in this medium-bodied, approachable Brunello. The finish shows good energy and focus. The 2006 Riserva stops just a bit shy of being truly exciting, but it is well-made and tasty. Sassodisole gave the Riserva four years in cask. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022.
