Le Potazzine Brunello di Montalcino 2020 750ml

An intense fruity nose that here at Le Potazzine we love to describe as “fancy”. In the mouth is very varietal, with notes of black-fruits supported by a well-balanced acidity, which enhances the freshness and the drinkability of this Brunello, as well as promising a very long shelf-life in the bottle.

A sweet and savory nose features lighter notes of cherry, vanilla and cedar standing up to umami balsamic vinegar, olives and rocks. The palate welcomes a sour wave of dried cranberries, pomegranate and citrus before an astringent finish. This wine will make the whole table sit up straight and pay attention.

94 Points - 
Le Potazzine delivers solid results thanks to the impressive positioning of its vines that straddle the crown of a high-elevation plain. The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino shows bright fruit with cherry and redcurrant, and that makes all the difference. Careful oak aging has enhanced the aromas. I also feel the effects of careful cellar aging in terms of mouthfeel, especially the structure and tannins. The wine is tightly stitched together with a point of sourness on the close. Give it a few more years to soften.
