Note di degustazione
The 2009 Brunello di Montalcino from Sesta di Sopra is a solid wine with plenty of character. Iron, smoke, crushed flowers, game, tobacco, red cherries and earthiness take shape in a powerful, structured Brunello with good overall complexity.

Enrica Bandirola’s 2009 Brunello di Montalcino is an interesting and intriguing expression that boasts a very exotic, almost Byzantine (architecturally speaking) personality. Dark in color, the wine is loaded with bright little details and embellishments of crushed flowers, curry leaf, root beer and licorice stick. The mouthfeel is very dry, so much so the wine almost feels waxy on the finish with a very fine and polished manner. Drink: 2016-2022. Sesta di Sopra is usually a highlight of my Brunello tasting by a pretty wide margin. Results this year place the wines closer to median scores achieved by neighboring producers, although the special aromatic characteristics that distinguish these wines are still on display.

Mid ruby with broad orange rim. Iron, tobacco and vanilla pod. Maturing quite fast, it seems. Quite big tannins on the palate. A huge structure for the elegant fruit, but length it has. (WS)
