A succulent, solidly built red, with converging black cherry, blackberry, blueberry, violet and chalky, mineral flavors. This is packed with fruit that resonates through the lingering aftertaste. Very nicely put together. Best from 2025 through 2045. 2,416 cases made, 1,200 cases imported.

Meaty, sanguine aromas jump off the nose, backed up by sweeter notes of strawberries, cherries and cranberries and a last hint of fennel. More strawberries, cherries and orange zest on the palate with the sanguinity present now as the metallic tang of pennies and brick dust make for a very fresh, lively expression.

“Lovely purity of fruit with aromas of peaches, plums, ripe cherries and lemons, alongside some spice box and moss. Medium to full body with fine, creamy tannins. Wonderfully juicy and approachable with a supple and seamless finish.” ~JS

“The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino shows a pretty, mid-weight appearance with shiny dark ruby highlights. The wine offers soft fruit with cherry and wild forest berry at the front. On a second wave, it delivers light spice, earthy mineral and cured tobacco. Both the fruity and the savory sides of the wine are well balanced over solid tannic support and balanced freshness.” ~ML
