Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese

Deep fruit and big fruit

Wine of the night.

Let it breathe. Then drink!

Great vintage put this one is average

I love the bright red fruit (black cherry and strawberry) on this. Drank with pork chops from Charlestons. Medium length finish. There’s some mild sweetness; figs? Really good at 10 years.

Lovely integrated wine -everything in balance. Perfect with spaghetti and meatballs. Stands up and shines even with the tomato sauce.

Very herbal/vegetal, but with some ripe fruit behind it, more interesting than pleasurable.

Liked Casalforno Chianti so wanted to try the Brunello. Tasty table wine.

Expressive nose, floral. Medium palate, clean finish. A few more years until it gets better. Recommended.

Not complex, but oh so easy to drink. Any day, anytime, a gem.
