Gianni Brunelli 2006 Riserva (Brunello di Montalcino)

Country: Italy / Riserva
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Gianni Brunelli / Brunello di Montalcino

This interpretation of Sangiovese Grosso is clean, polished, ripe and elegant. It opens with dark concentration and berry notes of cassis and candied cherry, and then rum cake, leather and tobacco show up on the finish, backed by firm tannins and bright acidity.
