Score 87/100 · Drink 2013-2018, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2011
The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is a big, rustic wine loaded with dark fruit. Hints of smoke, tar and French oak add complexity, but this remains a touch heavy and monolithic.

Maturing ruby with orange rim. Spicy, heady, but subdued. Sweet, concentrated and very ripe fruit. Rustic tannin, and has length, but not a lot of excitement here. (WS)
