WineSaint
Garnet-hued and gracefully evolved, showing dried roses, leather and dark cherry liqueur. The palate reveals remarkable freshness, with tart red fruit cutting through earthy undertones and mineral depth. Refined tannins and vibrant acidity drive a long finish touched by citrus zest and pencil lead. Twenty-four years on, this displays textbook Brunello maturity.
