Tasting notes
Tenuta di Sesta's 2001 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a deeply-colored, modern Brunello. This big, full-bodied wine offers macerated dark cherries, leather and coffee bean nuances in a super-ripe, supple style. It reveals excellent focus and energy and should offer its finest drinking over the next decade or so.
