La Fiorita Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2019

A stunning, full-throttle Riserva that delivers a sumptuous, ultra-velvety texture with plenty of richness and depth. The palate is mouth-filling and layered, driven by ripe black cherry, dried red berries, and hints of apple skin, all framed by notes of cacao, baking spice, and refreshing menthol. Despite its opulence, the wine maintains excellent freshness, with vibrant acidity and a poised, structured backbone. Firm, finely grained tannins suggest this will reward cellaring (best from 2029 onward), yet its open-knit aromatics and polished texture make it surprisingly enjoyable even now with a decant. A complete, compelling wine that balances power, elegance, and hedonistic appeal.
