Barone Ricasoli 2011 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Barone Ricasoli / Brunello di Montalcino

Strawberry jam, espresso, toast, menthol and dark spice lead the nose. The straightforward, rather lean palate offers dried cherry, star anise and a hint of tobacco alongside firm, fine-grained tannins that grip the finish.
