Trip to Montefalco; 10/11/2008-10/12/2008 (Montefalco): Barrel tasting from the outstanding 2007 vintage. Deep purple. Persistent and intense on nose and palate. Big fruitiness imparting sensation of sweetness that will take on the new oak without compromise; big earthiness and minerality too. Lowish acidity, high level of beautiful/ripe tannins. Very long and complex. For release in 2010. To buy.
