Carpinetto 2020 – Brunello di Montalcino

The nose is aromatic, herbaceous at first (peppermint, dried rosemary, thyme) and very fresh. It expresses notes of fresh tangy fruits (raspberry, strawberry, bigarreau cherry, morello cherry, blueberry), spices (cardamom, liquorice), toasted notes with some freshness (toasted hazelnut, fresh almond) and a hint of coffee in the background. The palate is lively, tangy, with a good bitterness of coffee and bird cherry on the attack, which are then complemented by notes of cranberries, bigarreau cherry, morello cherry, fresh almond, peppermint, dried rosemary and thyme, as well as sweet spices (cardamom, liquorice). Beautiful salivating acidity, the finish is chiseled and quite persistent.
