Note di degustazione
Lisini's 2008 Brunello di Montalcino is one of the few wines of the vintage that is going to require patience. A big, broad shouldered wine, the 2008 fills out nicely over time with attractive black fruit, smoke, tar, game and savory herb notes. Although quite virile and imposing today, the 2008 also shows striking inner perfume and a level of sweetness that is likely to require some time to emerge, suggesting the wine has plenty of potential for improvement ahead. The 2008 spent 42 months in French oak, exceedingly long by today's standards.

Mid ruby with broad orange-tinged rim. Lifted tea leaves and cherry and intensely sweet raspberry nose with hints of spice. Elegant palate with sweet intense fruit. Quite intensely fruity. Seems ready. (WS)
