2001 Caprili Brunello di Montalcino

Deep, bright red. Complex perfume melds dried cherry, rose petal and nuts; one can smell the acidity here. Suave, sweet and vinous, with a subtle penetrating quality to the nuanced flavors of red fruits, graphite and minerals. Classy, subtly fleshy Brunello; complex and complete. Finishes firmly tannic, with terrific juicy acidity giving the flavors insidious persistence.
