Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyLook for a meaty, gamey, resiny nose streaked with black cherry aromas and spicy clove and pepper notes. It is slightly lean and skinny with tight tannins but decent finesse. Similar flavours of cherry, sour plum, smoky pepper and game. This is solid workman-like Brunello.Tasted: 08 September 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
