The lilting and equally refined middle weight flavors possess both lovely detail and energy before concluding in a sappy

This is a relatively elegant Nuits villages

Sesta di Sopra, Brunello Montalcino Vintage:2020 singed plum and incenseThe Sesta di Sopra 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is very generous and ripe with plush dark fruit, spiced brandy, blackberry liqueur and crme de cassis. There is an actively tannic component that is grippy and drying. It practically sucks the air out of your mouth, and I'm not confident that it will ever fully integrate. For that reason, I feel this wine is not fully balanced. Production is 4,500 bottles.
