Country: Italy / Riserva
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso Tuscany
Winery: Uccelliera / Brunello di Montalcino
Always a knockout Brunello, Uccelliera’s 2006 Riserva seems on the ripe side, with jammy fruit aromas and savory beef jerky notes at the back. The firmness and natural acidity associated with Sangiovese is present, but the aromas show hints of candied fruit and spicy plum cake.
