This stuff is crazy good for the price. Wine Strategies wrote a spot-on review and I agree with Tim completely. The wine is so focused and so simply straightforward Sangiovese that it seems almost too easy.

Benvenuto Brunello NYC (Gotham Hall): Benvenuto Brunello NYC. Pretty serious stuff for a Rosso. The organically farmed grapes for this bottling come from the southwestern part of Montalcino zone, specifically, an area rich in alluvial, sandy, and quite rocky terrain. This offers a depth and breadth that's common to wines from this region, with the added benefit of more tension and length than many were able to offer in their own 2015 Rosso wines. There's a lightly modern touch to this, but I'll go on a limb and say it's the vintage's fault, not the winemakers - if that's a fault, which, technically it's not, rather just a stylistic/preferential choice. That said, I'd drink this again...and again. The 14,5% abv. is already fully integrated; thru 2025. recommended
