2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli

Remarkably pretty and lively in the glass, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli exudes the energy and radiance of the 2019 vintage. Dried roses, incense, spiced blood orange and cloves can all be found as this opens in the glass. It’s silky and serene with a wave of ripe red berry fruits that gain tension through a core of orange and savory spice. The 2019 leaves the palate stained in primary concentration and a layer of finely etched tannins, finishing pleasantly chewy and long as hints of licorice fade under a veil of violet inner florals. This is painfully youthful today yet packed full of potential.
