Altesino Montosoli Brunello di Montalcino 2018

This has a complex nose of cranberries, dried pineapple, soy, bark, cardamom, mocha, iodine and wet leather. Full-bodied, with firm and very fine tannins. It really builds in intensity, expanding into a broad array of fresh and dried fruit and espresso bean, before converging again on a long and driven finish. Fantastic already. Try now or in a couple of years. Score - 97. (jamessuckling.com, Dec. 11, 2022) 750 mL bottle
