With only 2,000 bottles produced, it might prove difficult to get your hands on Le Gode's 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. This is a powerful Brunello that shows deep inner strength and muscle. The wine also shows lots of dark ripe fruit that is sticky and jammy in places. Blackberry confit and blueberry marmalade give the wine a sweet and succulent side. Smoke, tar and barbecue spice appear lavishly on the finish. The wine comes close to tasting too ripe (for my palate), and I'm not sure how this will play out during its future evolution. For that reason, I am suggesting a conservative drinking window.

Gl?nzendes, intensives Rubin-Granat. Kompakte und ansprechende Nase, zeigt Noten nach reifen Brombeeren, Kirschenkonfitüre und Zwetschken, im Hintergrund nach Leder und Harz. Rund und geschmeidig am Gaumen, zeigt viel sü?en Fruchtschmelz, feinmaschiges Tannin, langer Nachhall.
