Aromas of stewed prune, mocha, underbrush and licorice follow over to the no-frills palate along with blood orange and roasted coffee bean notes. Dusty, drying tannins and the warmth of alcohol provide the backdrop. Drink through 2027. |

The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is wonderfully fresh and lifted, with bright cherries, dusty rose and hints of sweet spice. This is soothingly soft and fleshy in feel, matched by ripe red fruits, licorice and juicy acidity that creates a zesty, fun expression. Saline-minerals saturate, as a gentle tug of tannins and sour citrus helps to create a pleasant tension through the long, classically dry finale. |
