Wild cherry and menthol lead, with leather and baking spice emerging in the glass. Medium-bodied with polished tannins that show surprising elegance for the challenging vintage. The finish carries good length despite 2011's heat.

Pian dell'Orino

Small Montalcino estate run by Caroline Pobitzer and Jan Hendrick Erbach, farming biodynamically on the southwestern slope. Two single-vineyard Brunellos, Vigneti del Versante and Bassolino di Sopra, define the range.
