Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Shoe leather on the nose. Red fruit on the front. Light tannic structure. Not much body. What body there is fades on the end. Short finish. Except for the slight scent of mouldy shoe leather on the nose, there’s nothing objectionable about this wine, but it’s weak and watery and without much character. Meh. But wait!…

I left the remainder in the bottle, and 24 hours later it had developed quite nicely. The nose had developed into unripe cherries—losing the moldy leather smell. Red fruit developed on the front, and the tannic structure improved. And it developed a longer finish. I upped my rating from an 8.6 to 9.0.

Solid but unspectacular Brunello.

Very light. But enjoyed.

Solid Brunello. Dusty cherry notes with Eucalyptus prominent.

Ripe red fruit, hint of tabaco on the nose, strong tannin , feels bit young? But nice complexity, I would love to try it again in a few years

Phenomenal! Is that a rating!!! Wow! Love Sangiovese! Sooooo smooth!
