Cerbaia Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2015 (750ml/12)
Tasting Notes
The wine exudes an aristocratic aura with its medium-ruby color and captivating aromas that emanate from the glass. Fresh and dried black cherry, black plum, wet stone, sottobosco, cocoa, nutmeg, toffee, and a hint of prosciutto intermingle to create an utterly enticing scent. On the palate, the wine’s full-bodied and expansive nature unfurls a mainsail of dried black-fruit flavors such as mulberry and black cherry, accentuated by a pleasantly bitter quinine note. The firm, satisfyingly persistent tannins form a sturdy framework that frames the flavors beautifully. This Brunello manages to strike a perfect balance between being poised and dramatic, which invites contemplation. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 2030.
