Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Good tannic structure. Light to medium. Young. Can enjoy now or really enjoy in a few more years.

This 10 year old Brunello is drinking very nicely now.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.

Very dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red fruits with oak, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, spices, earth and light vegetables.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy pomegranates.

Powerful yet elegant and smooth.

Good by itself or with food, and needs a couple of hours to open up properly.

Rich with a great mouthfeel.

Will continue to drink nicely in the next five years.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Bright red. Sweet spice, ripe red cherry, licorice and flowers on the nose and in the mouth. Smooth and bright, and though not exactly the last word in concentration or complexity, this is downright irresistible in its juicy, fruity appeal. Podere Brizio recently changed ownership and now belongs to Dievole, the Chianti Classico producer (Podere Brizio’s previous owner, Roberto Bellini, is the man who sold the Chiesa di Santa Restituta estate to Gaja, who renamed it Pieve di Santa Restituta).

One of those wines that stays with you.

Полный ягодный аромат с дубом, выпечкой и дегтем. Вкус интенсивный, плотные танины, потенциал. 16.5/20 (91/100)

I adore this wine!! The most aromatically exciting wine I've had in a while

A nose of eucalyptus and earth, cherries and dark fruit on the palate with slight hints of pencil lead. Medium body and smooth tannin.

Wonderfully developed with lots of dried fruits and herbs. At its peak now.
