"Crushed ashen stone, smoky animal muskiness and savory herbs waft up from the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino. With time in the glass, it gains pretty depths and refreshing notes of dried roses and cherries. The textures are soft, verging on fleshy, yet nicely contrasted by a more refined mix of wild berries and minerals. There,s a salty flourish that mingles with hints of licorice and residual acids through the finale, giving an almost juicy feel, and a coating of fine tannins frames the expression well."
