Description
The enticing 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Cielo contains a classic, dusty blend of dried strawberries and cherries complicated by a whiff of mint leaves, incense and Tuscan dust. This is cool-toned and sleek with silken textures, a core of tart red berry fruits and crunchy mineral tones that add traction as hints of tangerine zest embellish the close. It leaves a tinge spice, black raspberry, and a beguiling licorice concentration on the mid-palate, finishing with fine tannins, yet not tannic, simply irresistible. The Cielo is more accessible today, yet possesses excellent balance. What a beauty.
