Tenuta Oliveto 2006 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Tenuta Oliveto / Brunello di Montalcino

Here’s an inky, garnet-colored Brunello that opens with lavish aromas of mature berry, moist earth, dried rose and cured meat. In fact, that distinctive note of bresaola or smoked ham is one of its most interesting qualities. The mouthfeel is thick and penetrating and the tannins are dense but smooth.
