Note di degustazione
The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva impresses for its vibrant dark fruit, persistence and balance. Smoke, tar, licorice and French oak add further complexity, but this remains a fresh, perfumed Brunello that could use another few years in bottle. There is a clarity and definition to the wine I find particularly attractive. Today the French oak is just a touch pronounced but it should integrate over the next few years.

Cask sample. Deep, almost opaque ruby. Hints of new oak and leather. Concentrated and sweet on the attack, the leather note dominates the stalky, warm finish at this stage. (WS)
