An old-school blend of dusty dried cherries, Tuscan powder, worn leather and hints of spiced citrus wafts up from the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino. It washes across the palate with ripe red fruits and sweet herbs as a collection of minerals and grippy tannins collect toward the close. This lingers on, zesty yet structured with residual acids counter-balancing it's youthful structure and hints of licorice that slowly fade.
