Tasting notes
The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Soccorso is darkly seductive with a rich blend of crushed plums, cedar shavings and cocoa lifted by mentholated herbs. This is round and supple with masses of ripe wild berry fruit and inner violet florals energized by brisk acidity. A wall of grippy tannins emerges through the finale, balanced by a staining of primary concentration as the Vigna Soccorso finishes structured and long. Patience will be required before this gentle giant shows its best.

Dark ruby with bricky rim. A gorgeous, deep, rich, dark nose with top notes of black earth, spice and minerals. With aeration perfumed cherry emerges from the glass. Fantastic tangy, full cherry with chalky-grainy tannins. Supple and wraps you up like a blanket, although it still needs more time in the bottle. (WS)
