Vigna Marrucheto Brunello di Montalcino

A ray of cherry cuts through this tightly woven red, lending an air of freshness and accessibility to the otherwise compact profile. Strawberry, raspberry, rose and mineral flavors complete the spectrum. There's tension between its elegance and punch, with density and vivid acidity driving the terrific aftertaste. Best from 2028 through 2046.

Restrained, licorice-soaked cherries and raspberries, together with rose and violet nuances. There is depth and intensity here. Soft attack with refined, velvety tannins, moderate but refreshing acidity and full to medium body with a chewy but supple finish. Almost ready to drink, with potential for aging. Try from 2025.
