Fattoria dei Barbi Brunello di Montalcino 2018

The quiet, elegant nose features delicate aromas of cherries, strawberries and figs, along with weightier notes of earth and stone. The fruit elements turn more decadent and syrupy on the palate, but a subtle citrus bitterness bolsters that flinty, earthy undertone to maintain balance. [Can be drunk tonight after an hour in the decanter, or can be cellared for another decade.] Score - 95.
