2010 Innocenti Brunello di Montalcino

Innocenti's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino shows distinctive notes of graham cracker and dried fig that segue to dried cherry and blackcurrant. This Brunello feels dusty and dry in the mouth with less fruit intensity compared to it peers. The best part is the mouthfeel that is rich and persuasive with velvety tannins and soft contours. This a food-friendly, informal expression of Sangiovese that should drink well in the medium-term. It ages for two years in large oak casks.
