Pretty advanced. Stewed fruit and chocolate. Not my favorite Brunello.

Sesta Di Sopra Brunello Di Montalcino DOCG 2016: Medium-plus bodied. Well structured & balanced. Velvety tannins. Red & dark fruit dominate. Leather. Tobacco. Oak. Earth. Long smooth finish. For me, this was a beautiful classic Brunello that delivered in taste and expectations. You will definitely need time for it to show its true beauty however you won’t be disappointed. This is what a quality produced Brunello looks & tastes like. Great day to all! Cheers🍷

Still holding up nicely with good structure. Tobacco and leather on the nose. Nice tannins on the pallet that move into a fine long finish.

Beautiful aged savory meat, iron and exotic spice aromas. Incredible balance of black cherry, game, herb with floral hints. Very supple tannin and amazing density.
