The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Pietranera offers up incense, tar, grilled herbs and a host of dark, smoky aromas. This is a decidedly virile Barolo that shows the more masculine side of Sangiovese. Readers will need to give the 2007 at least another year or two in bottle, although I doubt the firm tannins will ever melt away. The 2007 Pietranera spent 35 months in French oak, which is probably a bit too long for the wine’s structure. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. Importer: Soilair Selection, New York, NY; tel.

Distinctive iron, balsamic and tobacco notes accent the core of cherry in this intense red, which is firmly structured, with moderate acidity. The finish evokes underbrush and tea. Best from 2014 through 2023. 7,500 cases made. –BS

Opens with dark concentration and ripe berry fruit with layers of plum, blackberry, dark chocolate, pipe tobacco, cherry liqueur, cola and underbrush. It offers a wonderful 360-degree portrait of Sangiovese Grosso. Tight structure, integration and loads of fruity intensity. Drink after 2018. ——M.L.(5/1/2012)—— 94
