Product Description

The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino is one of the unqualified successes of the vintage. Dark, vibrant fruit melds into graphite, spices, menthol and minerals as this mid-weight, elegant Brunello opens up in the glass. Deceptively medium in body, the 2005 Brunello packs quite a punch, with tons of super-ripe fruit that caresses the palate and balances the tannins beautifully through to the close. The warm radiance of Castelnuovo comes through in spades. This is another brilliant Brunello that benefits from the inclusion of fruit that usually goes into the Riserva. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. 94pts WA (AG)

There's very pretty aromas of mulberry and flowers in this full-bodied red, with toasty oak, coffee and dark fruits on the palate and a chewy, tannic finish. Still tight and holding back. Best after 2012. 1,365 cases made. 92pts WS (JS)
