“Aromas of balsamic vinegar, plums, cherries, chocolate and dried mushrooms follow through to a full body, velvety tannins and a delicious aftertaste. I love tasting this. Drink or hold.” (Oct 2015) www.jamessuckling.com

The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is an ambitious wine with a clear message that underlines a quality winemaking philosophy. The wine boasts a plump and rich personality that is flanked by a generous bouquet of dark fruit, spice, leather and tobacco. This is a standout Brunello from a classic vintage. That sense of fullness continues to the palate where the wine reveals especially firm tannins and extra fruit extraction. It will be fascinating to revisit this wine in ten years' time.
