Podere Brizio 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $70
A beautifully composed and well-constructed Brunello, with bright berry tones of cassis and cherry backed by ethereal notes of root beer and eucalyptus.

Owned by Roberto Bellini and Patrizia Mazzi, Podere Brizio delivers a beautiful Riserva that is generous with plump cherry nuances, dried currants, cedar wood, mesquite, cola, leather and a touch of sweet vanilla.
