2006 Fuligni Brunello di Montalcino 92 Points

Dark red color. Drank a glass over an hour. See Chablis28's note for decanting time. Deep sultry red fruit on the nose, medicinal, spice, oak. The palate shows juicy raspberry fruit, spice, full bodied, gravel, anise, oak, still rather firm and somewhat rustic tannins. Love the fruit purity and lift.
