A sensual beauty with gorgeous depth and mineral precision. Wild cherry and forest herbs build with exotic spice, while vibrant acidity carries everything through a silky, expansive mid-palate. The finish shows remarkable persistence, layering licorice and savory elements that leave you wanting more. From the Bassolino di Sopra vineyard, this represents Brunello at its most compelling.
