Wine Spectator 93 points (Jul 25 2012)
Effusive aromas of ripe cherry, plum tart and cedar lead Beginning to show the mellow cherry, mushroom, cigar box and complex spice aromas and flavors that mature Brunello is known for. Still needs time for the dense tannins to assimilate, and the finish is long. Best from 2015 through 2032.—B.S. |
| Wine maker notes |
| The finest grape bunches are rigorously selected during hand-harvesting. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks at controlled temperatures below 30ºC. After 20 days, the wine is transferred to Slavonian and French oak casks to age for a period of four years, followed by further refinement in the bottle for 18 months prior to release. |
