2015 Baricci, Brunello di Montalcino 6x75cl

Eric Guido 94

Here I’m finding a spicy display, with crushed black cherry giving way to zesty herbs and mineral tones, as hints of cedar, mint leaf, and worn leather evolve in the glass. On the palate, waves of silky textures are carried by brisk acids, as notes of black cherry and spice are carried by brisk acids, with hints of cedar, inner leather, and floral tones evolving and adding depth. The finish is long and structured, resonating on zesty acids and spice, with saturating minerality and fine tannin lingering. It’s a remarkably pretty and perfectly balanced Brunello that will perform beautifully with just a few years in the cellar.
