Buon Tempo Brunello di Montalcino 2019

The medicinal, earthy nose is layered with aromas of flint, roots, fennel and coffee grinds, while an undertone of Luxardo cherries brings a sweet, playful element. On the palate, raspberries and strawberries strengthen the fruit, before more dirt and coffee tumble over the finish. Beams of acid shine through rows of firm tannins. [This will evolve into the early 2030s+.] Score - 94.
