The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva captivates as it slowly blossoms in the glass but this is a wine that is truly worth waiting for. With each swirl a bouquet of mentholated cherry autumnal spice shaved cedar gains amplitude and richness. The textures are undeniably elegant communicating opulence while also stimulating the senses with salty minerals and an inner smokiness. An intense array of red currants licorice and savory spice fills the senses and translates directly to the finale where regal tannins saturate promising a remarkably long life. Only 3000 bottles of this beauty were produced. 99 mpoints Vinous
