Casisano Brunello di Montalcino 2010
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyCasisano's 22 hectares of vineyards are situated at 480m, on a natural terrace facing south east of Montalcino, and on a rocky base of sandstone, schistous marl, galestro, and veins of volcanic origin. In 2011, the Tommasi family, of renown Veneto fame, purchased the property, and today the 4th generation of siblings is involved with running the company. This is now showing quite deep browning of fruit, fully in the autumnal range, with well worked leather, dried cherry, and dried florals. Quite a traditional style, these drying, gripping tannins require food to mitigate.Tasted: 29 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $70.00 | 750ml | LCBO |
