Canalicchio Di Sopra Brunello Di Montalcino
| Vintage: | 1999 |
|---|---|
| Description: | (91+ points) "Good ruby-red. Inviting aromas of currant, leather and smoky, nutty oak, plus a suggestion of berry liqueur. Dense, broad and backward, with extremely primary, medicinal berry flavors and an impression of brooding power. The clenched flavors are perked up by a note of blood orange. Finishes with building, youthfully tough tannins that call for a decade of patience." (Sept/Oct 04) 90 points Robert Parker: "The 1999 Brunello di Montalcino, a bright garnet with aromas of wild cherries and underbrush is dense and sustained on the palate with ample notes of tobacco and anisette and a muscular texture. The sweetness of the fruit, however, manages to balance the rather pugnacious tannins. Drink: 2006- 2014." (04/05) Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar. |
