Casisano Colombaiolo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2017 (94 WE)

After initial savory notes, the nose is like a slice of cake, with sweeter vanilla, cardamom, cherry and cranberry aromas. The tangy fruitiness continues onto a lithe, dynamic palate, while the tannins are structured yet malleable, and the acidity is like great service—present but never intrusive.” – D.C 9/23
