Rich and dense, with cherry, raspberry, black currant, violet, mineral and spice flavors. Shows a spine of acidity that provides definition and keeps this red vibrant from beginning to end. Balanced, long and shows excellent potential. Best from 2025 through 2042. 250 cases made, 100 cases imported.

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva lifts up with a dusty bouquet, as cedar shavings and dried roses give way to spiced cherries and hints of sweet smoke. This is lifted and delicate in feel, with the silkiest of textures carrying a vivid mix of pure plum and strawberry fruit across the palate. Its tannins come in late, clenching the senses through the finale, as inner florals resonate over a tactile coating of salty minerals. This is totally classic, but it needs time to unwind. Nicely done!
