Armilla Brunello di Montalcino 2021

Young Brunello that's a treat, with a delightful freshness that makes it a pleasure to drink. Its ruby appearance is a nice touch, and the light touch of jarosite adds a fascinating nuance. The aromas are bright and cheerful, with whispers of cherries, red berries, and spices that are impeccably balanced. The sensation is clean and refreshing, with a lovely lightness that belies its opulent flavors. The zest is well-balanced, and the tannins are surprisingly low. The close is long and satisfying, with a lingering quality that makes it a joy to revisit. A great bargain for the price.

Powerful and structured wine with a dry, medium body, gripping tannins, and a well integrated acidity. The nose is driven by by leather, blackberry, and pepper, with additional layers of cherry, tobacco, and licorice. The palate is outlined by a rich, earthy, and slightly spicy finish, with a lingering tomato and tomato-like notes.

Rich and evolved wine with a deep, plush texture, matched by a understated crunch of dried cherries and a touch of smoky leather. The accents are expertly balanced, with a full bodied cherry compote and strawberry red currant adding density and a touch of bitterness, in contrast oregano and crushed gravel provide a understated earthy note. The finale is long and satisfying, with a clean and elegant ending that leaves the mouthfeel feeling delicate and polished.
