The 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova is a light-footed wine with a delicate approach. The bouquet is laced with small berry aromas and red currant with balsam herb, grilled rosemary, violets and exotic spice. Compared to the previous vintage, this wine does not have as much volume or density. It is softly layered, silky and finely textured instead. This wine is drinking beautifully right now.
