which is not a picture of the terroir
but if you make wines for the ages
one in Charmes du Bas and another in Charmes du Haut that are vinified
A burst of juicy flavours and spices come tumbling through on the palate
An impressively broad-ranging nose offers up notes of mineral reduction
Tassi, Brunello Montalcino Vintage:2020 which is not a pictureThe 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino comes from Castelnuovo dell'Abate and the old vines of Vigna Franci. It pours a bright red color and is lifted on the nose with aromas of preserved orange, cranberry, spice, and fresh roses. Medium bodied, it's refreshing and juicy upfront, with fine tannins, ripe acidity, and a rather long finish. Very appealing, with a wide drinking window over the next 20 years, I would snap this up from restaurant lists.
