Community Tasting Note

• Tim Heaton Likes this wine:

  February 18, 2018 - Benvenuto Brunello 2018, Montalcino centro; 2/16/2018-2/19/2018 (Montalcino): (Benvenuto Brunello, 2018, Montalcino) Again, a pretty, pale brick red color, this time giving way to a compelling nose that shows a light touch of oak, a pinch of vanillin, and some very pretty floral and soil notes. The med>full body is more structured than the nose might suggest; there's a cheeky sexiness about it, too, that has me saying "who cares if it leans modern, it's really quite delicious". 14,0% abv., drink 2020-2035. For the style, it's highly recommended, and a testament to what's possible in this very fine vintage.
