1988 was a marvelous vintage for Brunello di Montacino. This wine disappointed us a bit in that its great taste out of the glass fell short. Great leather went a bit flat. We served with duck and enjoyed but it was not quite what we expected after 20+ years.

Pre-HDR offline at Alloro: Somewhat more youthful nose than the Val di Suga with rich black cherry flavors. Wasn't this a pretty good vintage?

BORDEAUX LIKE NOSE?? REAL NICE COMPLEXITY. LAYERS OF DEEP BERRY FRUIT IN THE NOSE AND FLAVOR. MEDIUM TO LONG FINISH.
