點擊次數(shù)：2455

The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Molino della Suga is another wine from producer Bonacchi that feels a little watery and light, especially considering the power and concentration of the vintage. Indeed, it is not easy to tell these various wines apart, whether it be the Brunello Molino della Suga, Molino del Piano or the Casalino. You get cherry and dried raspberry with spice, toasted almond and a touch of aniseed or medicinal herb. Serve it with a Russian borscht or beef dumplings in broth. Some 40,000 bottles were made.

This Brunello opens to a darker, more robust color compared to the other wines in this flight from Cantine Bonacchi that represent the difficult 2014 vintage. The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino Molino della Suga (with annual production numbers that range from 40,000 to 60,000 bottles, depending on the vintage) exhibits a bright and vibrant appearance with mild aromas of cherry liqueur, cough drop, rum cake and exotic spice. The wine ages in large oak casks for four years. To the palate, it is thin, crisp and smooth. This is an easy and accessible wine with no hard edges.

The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Molino della Suga is a slightly brighter and more fruit-forward bottle compared to the Brunello Bonacchi from the same vintage. Even the wine's color is just a shimmer more ruby-toned in saturation. Dried cherry and plum segue to spice and savory leather. Despite the nicely presented bouquet, this Brunello is thin and short on the finish.

The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Molino della Suga is thin and compact both in terms of appearance and aromatic intensity. The bouquet is a bit sharp and edgy with wild berry, smoke, grilled herb and dried ginger. The mouthfeel is light and compact with lean fiber in terms of its textual impact. This wine could flesh out further with another year or two of bottle aging.

The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino Molino della Suga is an earthy and rustic expression of Sangiovese with cured meat, tobacco and dark fruit aromas that rise to the top. The aromas are not seamless in presentation. The wine's earthy and autumnal tones come forth with increased intensity and they cover up some of the dark fruit found underneath.
