Franci 2011 Brunello di Montalcino

Country: Italy /
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: Franci / Brunello di Montalcino

Big and bold, this opens on aromas of ripe wild berry, forest floor, sunbaked earth, leather and grilled herb. The concentrated palate offers fleshy Morello cherry, raspberry jam, licorice, clove and dried herb while firm, velvety tannins provide the framework. You’ll also notice the warmth of alcohol on the close but the fruit richness keeps it in check. Drink 2018–2025.
