2013 Mastro Janni Vigna Loreto Brunello di Montalcino

Totally opaque dark red black colour with a dark brick red hue. Fragrant aromas of ripe red currants and spicy red to dark cherries intermingle with dried herbs, earth, tobacco and spicy cedar notes. Medium bodied, rich red currant and ripe cherry flavours are overlaid by an earthy leather component with dried herbs, tobacco and spicy cedar forming on the tail. Elegant feel with vibrant acidity and dry, firm tannins providing the framework. Long spicy red to dark fruit, dried herb, earth, subtle leather and spicy cedar aftertaste.
Cellar 5-6 years.

Other Reviews….
The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Loreto is a darkly saturated and finely textured expression of Sangiovese from a cool and graceful vintage. The bouquet sings loud with dark cherry and blackberry followed by spice, leather and cured tobacco. There are plenty of balsam and floral highlights to add subtle detailing at the back. This is a great example of the elegance achieved in 2013. Drink 2020-2035.
