Country: Italy / Montosoli
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Altesino / Brunello di Montalcino
From Montalcino’s most famous vineyard site, this opens with aromas of cured meat, grilled herb and a whiff of mature olive. The palate offers red cherry, licorice, savory herb and a mineral note alongside youthfully assertive but fine-grained tannins that need time to unwind. Drink after 2018.
