Savory and rich, the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino is a hearty wine with a few rough edges that make it perfect as a pairing partner to grilled meats or t-bone steak. This Brunello opens to dark and rich color saturation with savory notes of cured leather, dried fruit, spice and tar. This Brunello offers soft tannins and plush richness that suggest a ten-year drinking window, but not much longer.
