Col d’Orcia Brunello di Montalcino (Magnum) 1999
- 1500 ml bottle
Product details
The 1999 Brunello di Montalcino is starting to show early signs of maturity in its bouquet. Worn-in leather, spices, licorice and tobacco meld into sweet dark cherries and plums in this full-bodied, intense Brunello. There is still more than enough fruit and sheer power to allow the 1999 to drink well for another 15-20 years, perhaps longer. The style is very much on the masculine, virile side of things. If opened today the 1999 needs time to come together in the glass.Drinking window: 2013-2029. Score - 93+. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, May 2012)
