Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2018

Nice but not great. Was worried it would drink too much like a bruiser given the 15% abv and relatively young age - actually wasn’t too bad on that dimension. But, not quite the level of fruit, acid, and seamlessness I’d hope for. Wait on others. — 14 days ago

Renieri Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2018

Medium Ruby with berry fruit, fragrant spice and floral notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and licorice with notes of smoky pepper spice, tangy mineral feel. Fine drying tannins, medium+ savory finish ending with a vanilla, tobacco and earthy note. Nice! Drink now and over the next few years. — 5 days ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2010

#AgedWineTuesday

Ruby in color with a wide brown/ brick rim.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black fruits with wood, earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf, bitter herbs and peppercorn.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 14 year old Brunello lost a lot of its fruits at this point. Soft and elegant. Earthy and better with food.

I paired it with a prosciutto and arugula pizza.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$100.
