Ferrero Brunello di Montalcino (Red) 2005 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Roasting coffee and mocha toasty aromas. Red berry and very ripe cherry fruit, high acidity. Black chocolate and cherries, rich despite the acidity. Quite charming with mature, integrated structure. Subtly floral on the finish - almost Piemontese violets and classically elegant lightweight tannins. Ageing well and exactly what I would look for.
