Tassi Filare 25 Brunello di Montalcino 2019, Tuscany, Italy

Reddish in color with medium intensity.

Nose of raspberries, strawberries, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth and tobacco leaf.

Light to medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, plums, raspberries, spices, dark chocolates, peppercorn, coffee, earth, black tea and light wet leaves.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a gorgeous Brunello from a great vintage. Spicy, rich and engaging. Very unique and well balanced with nice complexity.

This Single Vineyard Sangiovese is a gorgeous wine. I am surprised by how much I love it. Probably the best Brunello I've had so far.

Still young, but already enjoyable even by itself. Will pair nicely with food too. Will continue to age nicely in the next 25 years with good potential to become 96+ point wine.

Sangiovese grapes from 50 year old vines were aged for 4 years in large Slavonian oak barrels. A tiny production of only 900 bottles.

Bellissimo! Love aged Friuli whites - gorgeous light golden color, fresh cut flowers, jasmine, lemon balm, citrus but sweet not tart, silky smooth mid palate, more exotic fruit as it warms, steely minerality- not fat but kinda full-figured, just a beautiful cut, all the acidic angularity softened w/age thru lingering finish. — 3 months ago

Straw green. Delicate herbs, lime and floral aromas on the enticing nose. Then clean fresh and juicy, with outstanding inner-mouth perfume to the ripe pomaceous orchard fruit flavors. Finishes long with a whisper of pear, minerals, sweet spices and noteworthy clarity. A knockout Friulano. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, May 2018) — 6 years ago
