The dazzling, dark garnet-colored 1993 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Madonna del Piano (400 cases) boasts a breathtaking nose of foresty, damp earth, dried herbs, plums, incense, soy, smoke, and jammy black and red fruits. Huge in the mouth, with no hard edges, it offers a lush, multidimensional texture, medium to full body, and plenty of glycerin in the lengthy finish. It is a complex Brunello to drink over the next 10+ years.
