Italy, Tuscany, Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino
Pale garnet with orange edges. Musty to start, but develops into a floral, mossy nose, witb ripe red cherry. Tannins giving quite a bite while acids bright, with brooding yet tart red cherry, mint and liquorice. Lengthy, and complex with waves of florals and twigs, and tomato leaves. Nice!
Pale garnet with orange edges. Expressive nose, with ripe red cherey aromas, roses, tangerine peel, and fresh herbs. A bright, floral, savoury briny attack, with soft tannins and bright acids, tart sour cherry, fresh dill and tarragon. A very classic, long, savoury finish with hints of tar. Lovely!
Pale garnet with orange edges. Aromas of cherry, rose and cocoa, and cinnamon. A good punch of tannins, and flavours of tart sour cherry, purple flowers and brine. Quite persistent
Medium ruby with violet hue. Ripe cassis, violet, dried grass, and straw aromas. Full bodied and fleshy, and a fairly big tannic bite, with somewhat candied blackberry and cassis, violets, dill, and rosemary. Fairly long at the back. Nice!
Medium garnet with orange edges. Aromas of dried red cherry and cranberry, as well as roses and dried herbs, and a hint of soy. Floral and candied red cherry and raspberry flavours, with mouthdrying tannins. A good length towards the back
