Argiano Brunello di Montalcino (Red) 2020 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Semi-translucent. Very perfumed and floral on the nose. Cherries and rosewater. Pretty and quite ripe. Pretty, elegant acidity. Surprisingly fresh and elegant on the palate, with powerful tannins that are still really fresh, crisp, elegant and quite delicately floral. Stellar Brunello. Ends on chocolate, red cherries, cranberries and some blackberries. Nice extraction, good ripeness, lots of well-integrated oak.
