Like a bouquet of fresh flowers, with cherry, raspberry and spice notes on the palate, this red is appealing from start to finish. Lest you think it's easy, there are ample tannins, leaving a tobacco and licorice grip on the finish. Well-proportioned, but needs time to come together. Best from 2013 through 2026. 800 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add

This Brunello opens with elegantly on the nose, with small berry, cassis and wild blueberry aromas. Beyond the steady, feminine bouquet is a wine that has power, determination and personality, with savory endnotes of spice and fresh pipe tobacco. — (5/1/2012) —91
