Brunello di Montalcino Sesti 2001
750 ml Sangiovese Tuscany, Italy 2001
Brunello di Montalcino Sesti 2001 is a dry, full-bodied red from Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino, Italy), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are very firm and acidity fresh; oak influence is some. Those scales describe the wine when young; this is a 25-year-old bottle and its tannin and oak will have softened. Good with steak, lamb, venison, cheese board.
