but there are some gorgeous peach and citrus notes that flourish on the finish

the 2010 is sure to improve with a little more time in the bottle

Poggio Sotto, Brunello Montalcino Riserva Size:3x750ml crushed violetsA dark, towering wine, the 2005 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is quite similar in style and personality than the straight Brunello, but it has more of a tannic spine and greater overall structure. Dark and mysterious, the 2005 is constantly changing in the glass. I imagine it will still be fabulous at age 30. This is an especially dark, almost exotic, Brunello. Antonio Galloni
