ARGIANO - Brunello di Montalcino  - 2017

ARGIANO

Brunello di Montalcino 2017

Mid ruby with orange tinges. Lifted, sweet nose with hints of gingerbread and sweet oak, but more complex than that sounds. Supple maraschino palate with spicy gingerbread notes and grainy tannins while the acidity takes the lead on the finish. Very long, juicy, embracing and fresh and with plenty of acidity and chewy tannins. Has substance as well as elegance.
