San Polino Brunello di Montalcino (Red) 2018 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Mahogany red. Fresh leafy aromas, ripe juicy supple red fruit with rich black chocolate supple tannins. Very easy drinking even now! Vibrant acidity, extracted but vibrant tannins. Lovely complexity, beautiful combination of fruit and structure with good intensity. Love the pomegranate freshness and bruised red apples that last well into the finish.
