The 1997 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva possesses hard tannin as well as a dry finish. I actually prefer the 1997 regular Brunello (rated 90 in issue #137) over the Riserva, which appears to have less exuberance and freshness. While it offers a complex nose of soy, damp earth, cedar, and tobacco, medium body, and good up-front density, the finish is filled with hard, astringent tannin, hence the question mark. It is capable of lasting 10-15 years. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2014. A Marc de Grazia Selection, various American importers, including Michael Skurnik, Syosset, NY; tel.

Opulent aromas of mint, chocolate and meat, with hints of berries. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a long, ripe and rich finish. A bit funky, but I like it. Drink now. 360 cases made, 150 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
