The estate's medium-ruby colored 2001 Brunello di Montalcino shows an expressive nose along with vibrant layers of sweet fruit on a medium-bodied firmly structured frame with excellent length fine elegant tannins and a lively note of minerality that provides freshness on the finish. It should be at its best in a few years and drink well to age 15-20. A beautiful finely nuanced understated Brunello. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2019.
