“The 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino pours a bright red hue and has a beautifully chiseled, energetic profile that captures the vintage. The nose is expressive with redcurrants, preserved cherries, incense, chestnut, leather, anise, and sage. Medium to full-bodied, it is nimble and fresh on the palate, with polished tannins, brisk acidity, and a long finish marked by saline and sanguine accents. Drink this terrific wine over the coming 15-20 years. Drink 2026-2046.”
“Cedar spice box mixes with incense, cloves and dried black cherries as the expressive 2021 Brunello di Montalcino blossoms in the glass. Elegant with a wildly appealing energy, the 2021 displays masses of ripe wild berry fruits beneath and air of violet inner florals. It finishes with incredible length and concentration, perfectly framed by a coating of sweet tannin. This young, radiant Brunello is sure to have many fans.”
