Vinous Eric Guido - 01 Dec 21
The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is deep and savory, with crushed raspberry and cherry sauce complemented by hints of tobacco and tomato leaf. This is a soft, pure effort that impresses with a mineral-tinged mix of red berries and licorice tones. It’s lightly structured with a salty flourish and residual acids that help to keep the expression lively and fresh.

Just mid ruby with the beginning of orange tinges. Soft, ripe maraschino nose and sweet cherry fruit on the palate. It's juicy and open-knit and a little simple, but certainly long. For immediate drinking. (WS)
