This boasts a pretty ruby color and a clean delivery of aromas to create an elegant and balanced whole. Vanilla, Amaretto, balsam notes, lavender and sweet cherry characterize the nose and are backed by distant tones of smoke and campfire. You do, however, come away from the wine with the impression that the fruit was picked ripe.

This is a delicate and harmonious wine with a large offering of fragrant aromas that are doled out in measured, careful doses. You’ll get chocolate and coffee shavings next to earthy tones, Porcini mushroom, forest floor and a delicate embroidery of small berry fruit. It’s a distinctive wine with tight tannins, solid structure and a fresh, clean finish.

Leonensis is a truly beautiful blend of Sangiovese (50%) with Cabernets Sauvignon and Franc that opens with plush and thick aromas of chocolate, spice, almond paste, black fruit, cherry and cassis. In the mouth, the wine imparts a soft, smooth texture and long finish.

Owned by Roberto Bellini and Patrizia Mazzi, Podere Brizio delivers a beautiful Riserva that is generous with plump cherry nuances, dried currants, cedar wood, mesquite, cola, leather and a touch of sweet vanilla. The wine is extremely smooth and silky in the mouth yet it certainly does not lack structure or power.

Supple and soft, this Rosso di Montalcino impresses thanks to its inherent complexity and balance. There are fruit and spice notes that work in harmony to drive the wine’s intensity and persistency. Pair this wine with ravioli in lamb ragù. A Marc de Grazia selection; various American importers.

Creamy and luscious with sweet fruit tones backed by layers of spice and tobacco, this wine does a nice job of showcasing the 2005 vintage of Brunello. The wine is less expressive in the mouth, where it shows a lean, compact feel with bright acidity. A Marc de Grazia selection; various American importers.
