The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino is a beautiful, generous wine that floats onto the palate with notable richness and density within the context of the vintage. Ripe red fruit, flowers and sweet spices are woven together in a fabric of notable class and elegance. Today, the wine appears to have the stuffing that will allow it to age gracefully in the coming years. In 2005, the estate did not produce its Vigna Spuntali selection; instead those grapes were used for the regular bottling. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2020.
