Cordella Brunello di Montalcino 2019 – Brunello di Montalcino

(organic) The wine has a ruby color of medium intensity with garnet reflections. The nose is concentrated, gourmand, even a little sweet. It expresses notes of red cherry jam, roasted cherry, morello cherry, dark chocolate plum, blackberry and bird cherry jam. After aeration, we find the fragrant spicy and herbaceous hints : the aromas of nutmeg, liquorice, cumin, as well as roasted thyme, fresh thyme, fresh basil and cut wild mint and a hint of limestone, associated with a floral touch of dried rose in the background, as well as discreet notes of developpement (undergrowth, tobacco). The palate offers volume, depth and density, while remaining balanced and airy. On the attack, we find notes of cherry in chocolate, fresh morello cherry, roasted cherry, blackberry, a hint of strawberry and black plum, associated in the mid-palate with a herbaceous touch (roasted thyme, fresh thyme, peppermint fresh, basil), a touch of balsamic, spices (nutmeg, cumin) and dried rose. The finish is tangy and salivating, warmer on the persistence and slightly bitter. A complex and refined wine, and at the same time powerful, with a beautiful balance.
