Tasting Notes
Vinous 96
Expertly focused and intense in the glass, the 2021 Brunello di Montalcino tempts the imagination with depths of black cherry elevated by a minty herbal thrust, shavings of pine and a grounding note of dusty earth. Its seamlessly silken textures envelop the palate with polished, mineral-infused red fruits as nuances of clove add a pleasantly bitter tinge and rosy inner florals swirl throughout. Sweet tannins add an exceptional framework through the long and potent finish as a tart raspberry saturation lingers. The harmony within makes it hard not to drink instead of taste. That said, the 2021 is painfully young.
Anticipated maturity: 2028-2046
