Note di degustazione
This offers up earthy, mushroom and truffle aromas with beef stock, cocoa powder and dried dark berries. The palate has a beautifully fresh core of red and black-cherry flavors with fine, long and fresh tannins holding well. Drink across the next six-plus years.

Good deep red. Plum, redcurrant, tobacco and spicy oak on the nose, along with a ripe chocolatey suggestion. Juicy, spicy and sweet, with a penetrating quality to the redcurrant and tobacco flavors and some obvious oakiness. Not a subtle style, but firm acidity gives it focus. The oak-influenced tannins turn a bit dusty on the back.
La Rasina's 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a dense, full-bodied wine packed with ripe, dark plums, violets, new leather and sweet, fragrant spices. This is an opulent, fruit-driven style of Brunello, yet the wine possesses the gorgeous inner perfume, vibrancy and clarity of a top-flight wine. The sweet, long finish and soft tannins make this an excellent choice for drinking now and over the near-term. This is another outstanding effort from proprietor Marco Mantengoli.
