Conti Constanti Brunello di Montalcino Colle al Matrichese 2003

Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalySmoky, barnyard, cedar, tobacco, earthy, peppery, spicy, licorice, prune aromas with a slightly soya/ volatile edge. Round, dry, tight palate but elegant with some lean tannins. Warm with peppery, prune, blackberry jam, resin, smoky tar, tobacco flavours. Tart acidity and very warm finish, seems to lack balance. Best with beef.Tasted: 22 August 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
