Tenimenti Ruffino Greppone Mazzi (Red) 2019 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Intense spice, black chocolate. Pretty soft red fruit pippy tannins. Really lovely richness, balance of fruit. Fantastic tannins with just enough weight, slightly pencilly, cedary. Lovely intensity of fruit, great complexity. Really an exciting wine that for me encompasses the structure of Brunello - exactly what I'm looking for, minus a little bit of cherry fruit.
