Aromas of sweet cherry cola and vanilla extract make a good first impression. However, the mouthfeel does not follow suit and is in fact characterized by green, bitter astringency.

Brunello Assunto is a bright, balanced wine with simple aromas of wild berry, cherry and spice backed by a gritty, textured mouthfeel. The tannins are firmly tight and the crisp acidity suggest that this wine should age a few more years.

Here’s a gorgeous, and in no way overdone Brunello, with pretty notes of black fruit, Spanish cedar, cola, black spice and tea leaf. The aromas are direct, penetrating and inviting. The mouthfeel is sharp and powerful with good integration of tannins and acidity. Drink after 2013.

A vast improvement over the estate’s 2003 Brunello, 2004 offers compelling notes of brimstone and granite over luscious fruit tones of red cherry and blueberry. That combination is enhanced by subtle background expressions of cola, Spanish cedar and even a hint of pecorino cheese. It’s a cheerful, complex whole with a dark, pretty color and a round supple feel.
