2012 Brunello di Montalcino, Pieve di Santa Restituta, Gaja, Tuscany, Italy

Description

Mid ruby with some signs of age. Quite opulent Sangiovese nose with hints of tobacco. Seems already quite developed but shows real breeding. A little rich, dense and with fantastic acidity. Modernist, skilful, but big.
