  Moderate bouquet of macerated cherries. Shows as high toned, acidic and an almost fleeting final. Whatever fruit was here lasted about 15 minutes as this wine simply shrivelled up and disappeared. I had received this as a gift and unfortunately the person who was doing the offering - who I am sure wanted very much to give me a nice bottle - simply had no idea about the torrential rains of 2002 in the Montalcino area.

  Leather and cedar on the nose and palate. A bit thin with a weak mid-palate and finish. Way too much acidity which gave a fairly bitter finish. Not much fruit at all. I guess this is what to expect from 2002 Brunello.
