Tasting notes
The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino shows good freshness and plenty of energy in its delineated fruit. This mid-weight Brunello offers fine overall balance, but the sheer excitement that was once common here is still missing. Freshly cut flowers, mint and spices add complexity on the medium-bodied finish.

Mid crimson with the beginning of orange tinge. Very compact and backward. Opens up on the finish. Impressive tannin and concentration, and yet elegant. Wait. (WS)
