La Torre Brunello Di Montalcino 2014

Description

Luigi Ananìa u0026amp; the team at La Torre pay extra attention to canopy management in the rainy vintages like 2014 to avoid disease u0026amp; to make sure enough air gets in u0026amp; around the cluster for healthy ripening. The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino is a bit shorter on the mid-palate compared to classic years, but the wine does usher forth delicate nuances of dried cherry, potting soil u0026amp; grilled herb that place it squarely within the realm of mighty Tuscan Sangiovese. A firm tannic backbone u0026amp; balanced acidity characterize the mouthfeel. Some 11,000 bottles were produced.—Monica Larner
