Musico 2019 – Brunello di Montalcino

(organic) The wine has a pale ruby color with garnet reflections. The first nose offers a fragrant and airy floral aromas of fresh rose, dried rose, lily, as well as fresh and gourmand fruity notes. We find aromas of fresh red cherry, morello cherry, a touch of dried blackcurrant, red plum, black plum (with a hint of prunes), wild strawberry, combined with sweet spices (liquorice, nutmeg, clove), a touch of torrefaction (toasted bitter almond, coffee). We also smell savoury herbaceous aromas – roasted bouquet garni, dried mint, thyme, tobacco in the background and a hint of dried leaf. The palate has a firm tannin structure, a fine texture of tannins, a salivating acidity and a beautiful freshness in the flavors of menthol and liquorice. It expresses the flavors of red cherry, black plum, dried blackcurrant, morello cherry, fresh strawberry, as well as fresh thyme and rosemary, a hint of toasted bitter almond, coffee, flowers (dried rose, rose fresh in the background) and sweet spices (liquorice, nutmeg), combined with a touch of tobacco. The finish is slightly chocolatey, with salivating acidity and good bitterness.
