spice and wet stone hints

dry and well-balanced finish

Altesino, Brunello Montalcino Brut Zero This bottle was way betterAltesino is now celebrating the release of its 40th harvest. In fact, the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino is inscribed with the words our 40th Harvest in gold letters on its front label. This is a truly delicious wine that exceeds my expectations. I love the way it takes full command of the slightly bolder and more opulent dark fruit aromas produced in this hot vintage. Black cherry, plum and crme de cassis converge on the bouquet.
