2019 Brunello di Montalcino Altesino

The Altesino 2019 Brunello di Montalcino boasts a rich and savory side that this wine wears very well. There is a beautiful level of dark fruit that folds into the wine's velvety texture. Blackberry and plum envelop the palate, adding elegant full-bodied volume and fine tannins along the way.

A dark ruby color in the glass, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a beguiling blend of dusty earth, crushed rocks, savory herbs and dried roses. This is racy and sleek, with vividly ripe wild berry fruits elevated by orange and sage, all guided by vibrant acidity. Grippy tannins take control through the finish, yet the mouth is left watering for more as a bitter licorice tinge and dark chocolate adds a crunchy sensation.

A medium-bodied red with pretty plum and berry aromas and flavors. Fine tannins and a fresh finish. Very fine and focused. Not the most structured but this is all about finesse and polish.

Good full vivid red. Boasts a forward, approachable personality and a nice fruit/acid/tannin balance, not to mention inviting floral lift. Elegant but full-bodied, with a very rich, dense mouthfeel, this gorgeous 2019 Brunello finishes long and beautifully suave.

Lys rubin med orangetonet kant. Urtekrydret, orientalsk krydret og med fokus på tydeligt røde bær og kun nænsomt tørrede. Mahognispåner og kakao, fin livlig syre, løftet vin, men man mærker også årgangens koncentrationsevne. Powerful, tannisk og alligevel cool, rødfrugtet i eftersmagen. Jeg er fan.
