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 black cherry and plum
followed by aromas of violet, vanilla, raspberry, tobacco, licorice,
chocolate, cinnamon, 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 3 months in cask followed by 6
months of aging in bottle.
