Terre Nere Campigli Vallone Brunello di Montalcino 2018

Critical Acclaim: 95 pts Wine Enthusiast; 93 pts James Suckling. 

Winemaker's Tasting Notes: The color is ruby red with a garnet rim. The aroma is a full expression of Sangiovese, with slightly acidic opening notes of eucalyptus and peppermint, followed by delicate fruity aromas of blackcurrant, maraschino and candied fruits of the forest, with a final note of vanilla, liquorish and tobacco. The palate is full bodied, yet elegant and refined with soft and silky tannins. Fresh blackberry flavours play beautifully with the sweet notes of liquorish, mint and clove. Strong acidity with a great capacity to age in the bottle.

"The nose is layered with invigorating aromas of coffee, salted dark chocolate, licorice, and wild strawberries and cherries. On the palate, a candied orange flavor brings out the fruit elements, but earthy and vegetal undertones maintain a sense of intricacy. Powerful acid stands in pleasing tension with tannins which are dense and chewy, yet polished enough to not be overwhelmed."- Wine Enthusiast. 

"A flavorful, well-balanced Brunello with aromas of grated chocolate, walnut, blueberries, dark cherry and bark. Full-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins. Fresh and nicely framed."- James Suckling. 

Varietal: Sangiovese.
