Tasting notes:
Gorgeous nose of spicy plum, currant, leather, and tobacco
Round, smooth, and spicy on the palate
Relaxed finish with black cherry, smokey notes, and sweet spice
Here's a really nice Brunello experience. This wine is now a decade old and drinking beautifully. It has nice integration of flavors with a traditonal core of flavors wrapped in modern sweet spice. Bring it up toward room temperature and you'll love the texture.
I enjoyed a bottle of this recently with friends, and we felt we got a pretty good deal. We paid $98 at a charming Italian restaurant. Seeing as this wine goes for $60-80 retail and is not widely available any more, that was a decent price. Raise a glass!
