Marchesi Cattaneo di Belforte 2001 Etichetta Bianca Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $40
Starts off with a whiff of cola or tree bark, then smooths out with air into red berries and spice. Earthy on the palate, adding notes of tobacco, red cherries and cedar, carried along by a slightly creamy texture. Turns crisp on the finish, with tart cherries framed by sturdy tannins.

Earthy and cedary, with only modest fruit flavors peeking out from behind a wall of tobacco and coffee. Serve with herb-crusted meats to help bring out the fruit. Imported by VinUS Inc.  — W.E.  (4/1/2006)

Marchesi Cattaneo di Belforte 2001 Riserva Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $23
Mildly baked on the nose, with aromas of fired clay, roast plum and fresh tomato. It maintains a heavy, roasted personality through the palate, which is carried by plum and raspberry, all the way to the savory finish. Registers as a wide, tannic red with bulk.  — M.S.  (10/1/2006)
