Gianni Brunelli Brunello di Montalcino 2007
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyThe 07 is an inviting liquorice, mineral, menthol treat on the nose with a somewhat sweeter hint of cherries and tobacco leather from a favourable vintage. Known for finesse the 07 Brunelli exhibits power and length from front to back in the glass. The core is supple ripe red fruit with silky tannins and persistent length. Maturation includes thirty months in 20 hectolitre oak casks. Only 6000 bottles released.Tasted: 24 April 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $70.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
