Underbrush, rose, new leather and camphor aromas mingle with wild berry in this fragrant, classy red. Linear and elegantly structured, the focused palate delivers juicy red cherry, spiced cranberry, star anise and cinnamon set against firm, refined tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced.
A wine with purity and integration, offering black-cherry, blueberry and orange-peel aromas and flavors. Hot stone, too. Full-bodied and very tight with integrated tannins that go on. Needs time to show it all.
First produced in 1980, the Riserva is only produced in great vintages from fruit selected by winemaker Massimo Bracalente. The 2015 Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva offers aromatics of sweet red cherry, violets, sage, and cedar. The palate is ripe and inviting, with pure red fruits, clove, and tomato leaf followed by an unfolding but fine tannic grip. The sunniness of the vintage is present, but there is clarity and purity of fruit which will make for a really pleasurable wine to drink with some time. Enjoy over the next 20 years.
This red is opulent and bursting with cherry, raspberry, rose and earth flavors, and an underlying spiciness from the new oak. Harmonious and long, refined tannins detail the finish.
