Le Ragnaie 2012 Fornace (Brunello di Montalcino)

Country: Italy / Tuscany
Variety: Sangiovese
Winery: Le Ragnaie / Fornace

Underbrush, truffle, crushed herb and ripe black-skinned fruit aromas slowly take shape along with a waft of new leather. The bold palate shows mature black cherry, licorice, clove and tobacco framed in big velvety tannins. This is already tempting but will be even better in a few years. Drink 2020–2027.
