Country: Italy / Carlo Baccheschi Berti Riserva
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Castello di Vicarello / Brunello di Montalcino
This garnet-colored riserva opens with savory spice, leather notes, with aromas of cured meat and barbecue smoke. The 2005 vintage was a warm one, and the ripeness of the fruit is evident on the bouquet and in the soft texture of the mouthfeel. Drink now.
