Tenuta Friggiali - Brunello di Montalcino 1999 (750ml) Barbera del Monferrato

Tenuta Friggiali - Brunello di Montalcino 1999 (750ml) Barbera del MonferratoThere's raspberry and blackberry jam on the nose and palate in this full bodied Brunello, with big, velvety tannins and loads of fruit. Very concentrated, with plenty of wood. Chewy. Still needs time to come together.

bringing out characters of Meyer lemon

Range: 90-91WS90Wine SpectatorFeatures alluring

The cuvée represents a diverse array of soil types

and a squeeze of lemon that lingers for some time

While this is totally enjoyable now

the vines are between 15 and 30 years old and pergola trained on terraces

It should be drunk fairly young

With a few swirls of the glass

with a freshness and verve that is downright charming

The fruit is hand-picked in the early morning hours at optimal maturity

including at least 18 in wood

Firm and full on the palate with a subtle sweetness giving a rich mouth feel
