Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Feb 16
The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is just as impressive as it was last year. Explosive, intense and beautifully delineated, the Riserva deftly balances finesse and power. Sweet dark cherry, plum, mint, spice and new leather meld together in a sumptuous, layered Brunello built on class.

Tuscany

Tuscany, a renowned wine region in central Italy, is famous for its high-quality Sangiovese-based wines. Key styles include Chianti, with vibrant acidity and red fruit flavours; Chianti Classico, known for greater depth; and Brunello di Montalcino, prized for its rich, full-bodied character and ageing potential. Tuscany also produces prestigious Super Tuscan wines that blend Sangiovese with international varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon. Top producers are Antinori, for Tignanello; Castello di Ama, for Chianti Classico; and Biondi-Santi, for Brunello.
