If I only could drink more Brunello at this age & pedigree. Opulent coffee, cocoa, black prune concentration of fruit. Dried cherry, persimmon, terrific acidity and balance, lively. A balance of generosity and silkiness.

Picking the best year for a Frescobaldi Brunello is like having to choose between works of art made by Michaelangelo or Leonardo da Vinci; either way it will be a masterpiece. That said, the Reserva from 2003 is way up there among the masterpieces.
