Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona Pianrosso 2020 – Brunello di Montalcino

(pianrosso – “red soil”, volcanic, rich in minerals and iron oxide). The nose is ripe and gourmand. It offers light metallic notes, a racy minerality, aromas of fresh and dried fruits (morello cherry, dried red cherry, blackcurrant, bird cherry, a hint of cranberries and crushed raspberry). We also find a perfumed and marked floral bouquet (violet, peony, cornflower), as well as notes of fresh almond, rosemary and liquorice. The palate is precise, expressive, powerful and straight. It offers a juicy fruitiness with its notes of morello cherry, dried cherry, crushed blackcurrant, crushed raspberry and bird cherry, as well as floral touches (violet, peony), liquorice, fresh almond and toasted almond in the background. The finish is long, tangy and slightly bitter (good bitterness of bird cherry).
