Tasting notes
Good bright, dark red. Highly distinctive aromas and flavors of exotic flowers, sexy oak, apricot pit, white tea, saffron and lily. Suave and fine-grained, with a downright silky texture and a strong impression of soil-driven extract. Finishes sappy and long, with sweet, very fine tannins. An idiosyncratic Brunello with plenty of personality.

The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a deceptively medium-bodied wine that nevertheless packs quite a punch in its perfumed dark fruit. This Brunello exhibits lovely balance, with notes of smoke, tar, licorice and new leather that linger on the refined, refreshing close.
