Capanna di Cencioni 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 750ml

The 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva dislplays a translucent red color and is layered on the nose as it opens in the glass, slowly revealing layers of pomegranate, walnut, rosemary, and blood orange. It's compact and coiled on the palate, with taut tannins, even acidity, and a mouthwatering finish with a mineral texture. It's still nervous at this stage and demands more time, but it's going to be worth the wait. Drink 2026-2046.
