Note di degustazione
The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is shy in the glass, slowly developing nuances of dried black cherry, autumnal spice and grounding notes of dusty earth. It is juicy and spry with tantalizing acidity and tart red berry fruits that add cheek-pinching tension toward the close. The finish is long yet energetic, leaving a cranberry concentration and pleasantly chewy resonance as hints of clove fade.

Good full medium red. Red berries, rose petal, lavender and a whiff of gingerbread on the nose. Juicy, sweet and savory, with lovely intensity and grip. Harmonious acidity energizes the mid-palate and gives definition and cut to the wine's dark berry and spice flavors. Not a silky style but penetrating, firmly tannic, long and built to age. Broad on the back but a bit youthfully tough today and in need of at least several years of cellaring.
The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino offers up freshly cut flowers, black cherries, minerals, new leather and menthol in a polished, totally vibrant style that is highly appealing. Over time, the wine's inner sweetness emerges, hinting at what is in store over the coming years. Still quite firm, the estate's Brunello will need a few years in the cellar. It will appeal most to readers who like firm, ageworthy wines. This finish impresses for its focus and overall purity. Smoke, underbrush, tar and a host of other aromas and flavors add complexity on the finish.

Each year I am increasingly impressed with the wines I taste from Il Marroneto. Importer: Montcalm Wine Importers Ltd, New York, NY; tel. (212) 602-7700
