Renieri Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Drank 12/31/20

Happy New Year!

Scents of dried cherry, leather, tobacco leaf, and cedar Incredible balance with sweet cherry, earth, and a touch leather. Long finish dominated by cherry and drying tannins.

JS went 98 on this one. A fantastic wine, bit cant quite get there.

Drank 9\27\19. Tasting event. Tasting pour.

Earth, black cherry, leather, and tobacco on the nose. Very well integrated red fruit, black cherry, and earth, backed by medium + tannins. Long finish. A pleasure to drink.

Firm tannins

The first ‘13 Brunello i’ve tried. I was drinking ‘11s the other night and this is a pretty stark contrast. Big and fruit forward, rich and savory. Plum, blackberry, and earth. Clocking at 14.5%

Victor had this 5 years ago

Ingen anledning att ifrågasätta James Sucklings 98 pinnar direkt, även om undertecknad endast är på humör att dela ut 91 idag..

2013 drinking really well

This is such a treat. So smooth!

Very smooth

Bright fruit at opening, cherry some graphite. As it decanted smoothed out with dark cherry, vanilla and tobacco notes. Really enjoyed the way this wine changed as decanted.
