Canalicchio 1999 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)

Price $75

Rock solid, with a pure nose that exudes leather, coffee, charred beef and lots of prime red fruit. From the plum and cherry flavors riding the surface to the wine’s deepest depths, there’s nothing not to like. As a whole, this one is Brunello like it should be: lively, racy and fun. Hold for several years for best results. — M.S. (6/1/2004)

A ripe, oaky wine, with coffee, toast, tobacco and berry on the nose. Truly delicious, with everything you might want in a modern-style rendition of Brunello: chocolate, silky tannins, supporting acidity, balance, you name it. Classy. Imported by Siena Imports. — M.S. (7/1/2005)
