The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino is round and harmonious in its dark fruit, blackberries, violets, leather, menthol, minerals and spices. This fat, concentrated Brunello offers tons of richness and a long, generous finish, both qualities that are exceedingly rare in 2005. Already quite open, the wine should continue to drink well for at least another decade. This is an impeccably refined Brunello from La Fuga. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2022.
