Brunello di Montalcino Ciacci Piccolomini 2015

Jahrgang 2015 Cassis, Schokolade, kerniges Tannin, Rumtopf.
Though dense and rich, this red is also sleekly proportioned and harmonious. The cherry, raspberry, licorice, earth and tobacco flavors meld with the solid structure. Offers fine length and complexity that increases with aeration. (...) A traditional style, the wine was fermented in stainless steel and concrete vats and then aged two years in Slavonian oak. Ciacci also makes Brunello from the Pianrosso vineyard, including a riserva in top years, but this label represents the best value." Wine Spectator
