La Fornace 2012 Origini (Brunello di Montalcino)

Country: Italy / Origini
Variety: Sangiovese Tuscany
Winery: La Fornace / Brunello di Montalcino

Coconut, oak, vanilla and leather aromas lead the nose and carry over to the bracing palate. The wine lacks fruit richness, suggesting instead dried notes of cherry skin and sage. Tight, raspy tannins leave an astringent finish.
