2013 Renieri Brunello di Montalcino

(92 Points) The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino reveals dark color intensity with bold aromas of black cherry and plum that taste grounded and integrated within the thick texture of the wine. That core of dark fruit is surrounded by spicy trimmings of pipe tobacco. This is a centered and balanced effort that delivers the power and the firm structure of the vintage. The wine should drink well over the next ten years. Some 35,000 bottles were made.  Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
