Score 89/100 · Drink 2016-2026, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Feb 2015

Pietroso's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino opens to smoky tones of ash and brimstone followed by dried cherry and plum. The alcohol is listed at 14% and you feel the power immediately. Within a few minutes in the glass, it begins to offers more fruit tones although they are definitely on the dry side, including prune, fig and cassis. The medium-bodied mouthfeel offers compact structure and polished tannins. This is a good effort but not an overwhelming one.

Healthy, concentrated ruby with orange tinges. Tea leaves and dried fruit and a hint of oak. Supple and sweet with good acidity and firm, grainy tannins. Perhaps just a little too popular for my taste. (WS)
