Expert Reviews
A very ripe nose with currants and raisins, as well as spicy dried-plum aromas. The palate has a bright and assertive core of ripe red-plum flavors and holds the finish well. Drink now.
The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a dark and richly extracted wine. The aromas are very ripe. I would argue too ripe, at least for my tastes. Candied cherry and blackberry confit segue to sweet baking spice and bitter chocolate. You also get whiffs of scorched earth, molasses and tangy Spanish cedar wood. This wine ages in oak for four years, and the wood influences add a succulent quality to the already sweet jammy fruit. The mouthfeel is richly textured with soft tannins and some bitterness on the close.
