Pian dell'Orino Brunello di Montalcino Bassolino di Sopra 2007
Red
Brunello di Montalcino, Italy
7.7
WineSaint
Rich and enveloping, with concentrated black fruit and exotic spice building in layers. The extended barrel regime shows clearly. Dense, chewy tannins frame the generous core, adding considerable weight to what feels like naturally opulent fruit. Despite the heavy oak treatment, the 2007 maintains impressive harmony, integrating its pronounced élevage better than expected.
