Description: Sweet blackberry and cherry aromas, with a hint of vanilla. Full-bodied, with a solid core of fruit and chewy tannins. There's a lot underneath this wine. Huge density. Wonderful balance. Best wine ever from this small and serious producer. Wine Spectator

Fattoria La Lecciaia Brunello di Montalcino
The cask-aged 2003 Brunello di Montalcino is dense and sweet, with superb intensity in its dark cherry fruit that is buffered by elegant tannins. Its open, accessible personality makes it a great choice for near-term drinking. This is yet another example where the regular bottling offers greater balance and harmony than the top-of-the line selection. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016.

2004 La Fortuna Brunello di Montalcino
92 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "La Fortunas 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is especially beautiful in this vintage. The wine is remarkable for its density, richness and concentration, all of which have been achieved while maintaining clarity and freshness. The French oak is beautifully integrated in this sumptuous, generous Brunello. Suggestions of flowers and spices add notes of brightness on the finish. The Brunello spent a whopping 40 months in 25-hectoliter medium-sized casks prior to...

Gemini is a special 500-case selection of the finest barrels in the estate. It is not a riserva, but certainly it is a deluxe bottling which rested a year in new oak barrels and another year in big oak botte. With a deep aroma, this wine has it all. Silky texture, excellent fruit and structure with a lovely spice to it. Full, yet drinkable now.

Poderina's Brunello is very unique, rustic, and a wine that deserves to be contemplated; especially the nose. Intoxicating aromas of dried flowers, earth, and dark fruit mingle with some smoky oak aromas. When you drink it you’ll see the beauty of this small estate on your palate. They don’t make much of this (around 3,000 cases), but what they do make is simply lovely.

Description: #11 on Wine Spectator's Top 100 for 2009 Dried dark fruit on the nose, verging on date and prune. Full-bodied, with a dense palate of ripe fruit and supersilky tannins. This is a deep and beautiful red, delivering lots of subtle character. Fascinating. One of the undiscovered treasures of the vintage. Wine Spectator

Antinori Brunello di Montalcino Pian delle Vigne 2004 Rated 91WS
Ruby red color with garnet hues. Aromatic and complex on the nose, with hints of spices, cherries, blackberries, light tobacco and pleasant chocolate undertones. Very full-bodied and broad on the palate, with an intense sweetness. Decisive but smooth, with elegant tannins and a long, persistent finish.
