2011 was a difficult (hot, dry, among other things) vintage for the Montalcino zone. And yet none of that comes through in this briliant, organically-farmed wine, yet another of Francesco Leanza's humble masterpieces. This is exciting, offering great energy, focus and tradmark purity. A really broad spectrum of aromas and flavors, all packed with detail and nauance - and all in a powerfully elegant and well-structured package. This is a standout, in this vintage, and others, too. Bravo! 2021-2038. highly recommended
