2003 Fossacolle Brunello di Montalcino

Good bright, dark red. Perfumed nose offers raspberry, plum, graphite, tobacco and dried flowers. Juicy, spicy and pure, with a distinctly tangy quality to the sweet red fruit and floral flavors. No shortage of extract here. A vibrant wine that avoids the hot character of the year. Finishes with lovely aromatic persistence and energy.
