Score 94/100 · Drink 2018-2035, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Jun 2018

This is a darkly saturated Sangiovese with a very etched and precise fruit profile. The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva offers immediate aromas of black cherry liqueur and pressed blackberry. Those berry notes are followed by spice, cinnamon and toasted coffee. This Riserva hits the palate with direct force and precision. It does not show the jammy or cooked notes commonly found in Sangiovese made in this hot vintage. Only 5,000 bottles were produced.

Deep ruby with bright bricky tinges. Concentrated nose of ripe, sweet red fruit. Compact, ripe and well-balanced fruit with a perfect dose of coating tannins. Lots of potential. (WS)
