The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is one of the most beautiful wines I have ever tasted from Il Palazzone. It is the wine's superb richness and absence of excess heaviness that impress above all else. The aromas and flavors boast superb purity and delineation, while the tannins are firm yet not intrusive. In short, all the elements fall into place in this utterly exquisite, expressive Brunello.

Il Palazzone estate excels with forward, juicy Brunellos that can be enjoyed pretty much upon release. Importer: Domaine Select, New York, NY; tel. (212) 279-0799
