This Brunello has evolved nicely since the 2005 harvest and shows sophisticated aromas of dried fruit, pressed flowers, black licorice, road tar and a touch of white pepper. There’s great intensity and harmony here and the wine fills your palate with generous fruit flavors and silky tannins. It’s ready to drink now.

Burnt coffee, black tar, cherry cola, almond paste, stewed strawberries and a note of rubber create a dramatic, slightly over-the-top Brunello. There’s a viscous fullness to the mouth that makes a good match for the wine’s fruity, clean finish. Imported by Tosco Wines.

This hearty Brunello offers loads of mature fruit with an emphasis on blackberry, plums and fresh prunes. It’s a chewy, succulent wine that begs to be paired with red meat, grilled pork chops or simple meat dishes that allow enough space for the wine’s natural fruit. In the mouth, it’s rich, creamy and penetrating.

Ripe fruit and mature notes of raspberry and strawberry preserves set the stage but are soon followed by espresso, vanilla and toasted nut. The wine offers plush softness and chewy ripe fruit flavors.

The Verbena Brunello Riserva is a serious and austere wine with sophisticated notes of mature fruit, spice, cedar wood, leather and tar. There’s good density and weight here to pair with grilled meat. The wine offers sweet, chewy tannins over dense texture. Drink after 2015.
