"Dried flowers and dried cherries, tar and vibrant black cherries. Full-bodied and juicy with substance and ripe, velvety tannins and a slightly more austere finish due to its youth. Refreshing, though. Drinkable now, yet at its peak in no less than one to two years."

"Mid ruby with orange tinges. Firm and still compact on the nose with earthy notes over subdued cherry. Juicy cherry fruit with grainy tannins. Solid rather than exciting. (WS)"

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is backward and intense, smoky and borne of the earth, with masses of crushed rocks, sage and rosemary giving way to dried black cherries and cloves. It sweeps across the palate with silky textures and ripe black fruits, gaining further complexity through a core of flint stone minerals. Fresh acidity maintains energy and a mouthwatering feel. The 2020 tapers off long and staining, yet only gently tannic. This combination of rich fruit and juicy personality is wildly attractive."

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino shows a touch of over-ripeness with sun-dried prune and cherry liqueur. These potent aromas give this wine a heavily enriched bouquet that is backed by sweet spice, licorice and barbecue smoke. This Brunello is one of the more concentrated and toasted wines among these new releases. It is aged in French oak for 30 months. Production is 10,000 bottles."
