Brunello DOCG 2018 Il Palazzone

"A dusting of exotic spice, incense, sage, dried roses, black cherries and currants can all be found in the bouquet of the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino. It’s silky in feel with a density of primary fruit mixed with stimulating acids and minerality that the young 2015s are becoming known for. Cooling herbal tones and hints of licorice add further depths, as a coating of fine tannin slowly settles in. This is classically structured and full of potential for the cellar, tapering off to purple-tinged inner florals over a hint of sour citrus and savory spice. Very nice. Drinking window 2024 - 2036".
