Note di degustazione
Very good, bright dark red. Sexy, Burgundian nose suggests cherry, raspberry, herbs, underbrush, rose petal and sandalwood. Silky-sweet and fine-grained, with an enticing sappy quality to the saline red fruit flavors. Concentrated, tactile and alive, showing the solid integrated acidity of the vintage's better examples. Finishes with suave tannins, a note of candied raspberry and enticing lingering perfume.

The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva flows across the palate with notable finesse. This is a subtle, understated 2006 Riserva that impresses for its silkiness and polish. Deceptively medium in body, the wine has plenty of underlying depth and serious structure. Sweet red cherries, tobacco, dried flowers and sweet herbs are layered into the finish. This is a fabulous showing from Mocali. The 2006 Riserva spent 4 years in cask.

Mid ruby with orange-tinged rim. Rather chocolatey at first. Fruit is still looking for definition and shape. Perhaps just closed? (WS)
