February 14, 2015 - La Torre Visit (Az. Agr. La Torre, Sant'Angelo in Colle, Italy): I was surprised to learn that La Torre chose to bottle a Riserva in 2009, a Brunello vintage generally viewed as being of lesser quality. But this packs quite a punch: more intensity (and also more tannins) than the 2009 normale, with aromas of cherry paste and field herbs. This needs a good ten years of aging in bottle for the elements to come together; when they do, it should be something special. Fewer than 1,000 bottles were produced. Rated 1 on a scale of -1 to 3.
