Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This Brunello di Montalcino shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of
garnet red, moderate transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean,
pleasing and refined aromas that start with hints of plum, black cherry and
dried violet followed by aromas of vanilla, cocoa, tobacco, cinnamon,
licorice, mace and menthol. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose,
a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense
flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry and plum.
This Brunello di Montalcino ages for at least 2 years in cask. |
