There’s a pretty mineral component that adds definition and dimension to this wine. Aromas include slate roof and lead pencil followed by forest berry and blackberry. In all, this wine offers an attractive combination of complexity and concentration.

Harmony and clean delivery of fruit on the nose and mouth mark this wine. You’ll encounter layers of cherry, blackberry, plum, cola and spice. There’s a dusting of mineral as well and the tannins are silky but firm.

This Brunello is characterized by dark, dense extraction that seems packed tight with black cherry, pressed rose, spice, root beer and toasted nut. The wine feels full and opulent on the close but fresh acidity stops it from being heavy or chewy.

This is a fine Brunello Riserva with a thick and pulpy feel that is accented by aromas of cherry, wild berries, currants, exotic spice and pipe tobacco. The wine is smooth and rich with enduring fruit notes and silky tannins. There is a pleasantly sweet note of cherry and vanilla on the long finish. Drink after 2012.

Here’s a fresh, berry-driven Rosso di Montalcino with an emphasis on ease and drinkability. This is the kind of wine you can pair with oven-roasted pasta or pork dishes because it offers bright acidity and lean structure.

Cherry-berry, vanilla, herbal notes and forest floor are the dominant aromas. But there’s also a slightly lactic quality in the form of milk chocolate. Not a hugely complex wine, but a straightforward and friendly one with a medium body and a spicy finish. Imported by Vinifera Imports.

Here’s a Brunello with a lighter more restrained style that will prove a successful match with delicate ravioli topped with parmigiano, butter and sage. The tannins are polished and smooth and the wine offers good acidity backed by aromas of cured meat, freshly brewed tea, licorice, cherry cola and mesquite.
