A classic nose features the sweetness of figs and Luxardo cherries, plus the light bitterness of orange peel and fennel, with a hot tar undertone. On the palate, the figs and cherries persist against coffee and dark chocolate undertones, before a long, dusty, tannic finish.

The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino is dusty, floral and understated in the glass, hinting at black cherry and rose. It washes across the palate with tart, mineral-tinged red fruits and savory spice. This finishes with decent length and is classically dry but lightly structured. While I find myself craving more energy and depth, this is a fine effort for the vintage.
