The Tenuta di Sesta 2014 Brunello di Montalcino opens to an evolved appearance that showcases dark garnet saturation. However, this expression is also thicker and slightly more concentrated compared to many of its peers in this vintage. In 2014, the wines are lighter, generally speaking. You get a bright bouquet with crisp aromas of wild berry, blue flower and spice. The thinness of the vintage is apparent to the palate. This is a compact and streamlined Brunello with medium length. Some 30,000 bottles were made.

This is spicy, with fading cherry and woodsy notes, backed by lively acidity and light tannins. Turns compact on the moderately long finish. Drink now through 2028. 2,500 cases made, 400 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
