Note di degustazione
Deep ruby with orange tinges. A little medicinal on the nose as well as palate. Generous, ripe fruit and slightly astringent tannins. Solid rather than exciting. (WS)

Light clove and nutmeg character to the plum and cherry aromas. Subtle. Medium-bodied, very polished and balanced with a flavorful finish. Lovely, chewy tannins. Drink from 2020.
The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino (with 480,000 bottles produced) reveals a pragmatic, no-nonsense approach to this challenging vintage. The wine makes good on a promise to deliver the cornerstone characteristics of Brunello including wild berry aromas with grilled herb, spice and forest floor. This vintage is not known for its intensity or thickness, and in fact the wine is mild and composed in personality. However, it is also silky and accessible with a very fine but firm tannic structure that is stitched in carefully like lacework at the back.
