Tenuta la Fuga's 2012 Brunello di Montalcino offers just the right measure of intensity without going overboard. Aromatically speaking, this is a very generous vintage and you get a big dose of ripe fruit and black cherry on first nose. Spice, tobacco and leather provide for extra richness and density at the rear. The mouthfeel is supple and smooth with good integration throughout. The tannins are neatly folded into the fleshiness of the fruit. You can enjoy this Brunello soon after its release.

An enticing combination of ripe cherry, almond, iron, beef and leather aromas and flavors, backed by a vibrant structure. This shows fine harmony, remaining on the muscular side, with a long, iron- and tobacco-tinged finish. Best from 2020 through 2034. 2,250 cases made, 400 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
