Critic tasting note: "Pipe tobacco, leather, prune and camphor aromas pull together in the glass. The smooth full-bodied palate evokes dried black cherry, raspberry compote and licorice alongside polished tannins. Drink 2020–2030." - 92/100, Wine Enthusiast

One of Italy's (and the world's) greatest wines, Brunello di Montalcino is small wine region in southern central Tuscany, producing particularly impressive wines from the Brunello grape – a local strain of Sangiovese. In Tuscany, its homeland, it perhaps ranks alongside Chianti Classico. On global markets it seems to command even greater attention.
