Castello Banfi Brunello 2020 Poggio alle Mura Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG

This red is broad and solidly built, featuring black cherry, blackberry, earth and wild herb flavors. There’s a wide swath of spiky tannins on the back end, yet they don’t feel dominating or obtrusive. This will need time. Best from 2030 through 2047.
