Note di degustazione
Darkly mysterious, the 2006 Brunello di Montalcino makes the taster work a bit, but it's well worth the wait, as plum and cherry sauce are complicated by nuances of crushed fall leaves, tobacco and lifting hints of mint. Seamlessly silken in feel, it mixes citrus-infused red fruits with clove, cinnamon and dark chocolate over a core of stimulating acidity. Licorice meets white pepper and sage as the 2006 finishes with dramatic length, resolved yet zesty and pure, while its haunting finish goes on for days. This is thoroughly satisfying on so many levels and in gorgeous condition in its 20th year of life.

Good deep red. Musky earth, cola, raspberry and dried herbs on the nose, lifted by a floral perfume. Silky-sweet, concentrated and vibrant; verges on opulent but there's no heaviness here. Impressive density to the flavors of red fruits, flowers and spices. Finishes suave and long, with serious, building tannins and a hint of leather.
The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is one of the more perfumed, vibrant wines to emerge from the southern reaches of Montalcino. Freshly cut flowers, minerals, licorice and juicy black cherries all come together beautifully in this gracious, utterly impeccable Brunello. With time in the glass the wine puts on weight, but the tannins retain considerable elegance and finesse. Sublte hints of oak linger on the impeccable finish. This is a fabulous effort from Talenti.
