Altesino Brunello di Montalcino 2011
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyA warmer version of the great 2010, the 2011 is still remarkably lively and fresh showing floral notes and the elegance we have come to expect from Altesino. The palate is equally refined and silky mixing the classic terroir touches of earth and licorice before the cherries kick in. Perhaps this will be more mid-term for drinking by 2020. Good value. The Altesino estate spreads across 89 hectares, 44 of which are planted and subdivided into the four Altesino crus of Macina, Castelnuovo dell‘Abate (in the district of Velona), Pianezzine and Montosoli.Tasted: 17 April 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $54.99 | 750ml | BCLS |
