Packaged in a chunky bottle, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino shows aromas of dried fruit and baked blackberry with soft spice, tarry smoke and cured leather. That savory side folds directly into that dark fruit, giving this wine an open-knit and accessible personality

Dark and brooding, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino from Tenuta la Fuga wafts up with a blend of crushed rocks and savory herbs giving way to dried black cherries. Cool-toned and pliant, it washed across the palate with ripe wild berry fruits underscored by salty mineral tones and brisk acids. This leaves a staining of primary concentration and dusty tannins, as a hint of salted licorice slowly fades.

Lots of ripe-cherry and sandalwood aromas with hints of fresh spices. Medium body, round tannins and a savory finish. Plummy.

Pretty nose of peaches, sliced plums, cherries, dried flowers, nutmeg and mushrooms. It’s juicy and creamy with a full body and supple tannins. Excellent drinkability and integration.
