CastelGiocondo Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Black cherries, black bark, blackberries and lavender. Medium- to full-bodied with juicy and polished tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Needs four or five years to open and come together. Best after 2027. Score – 95. (jamessuckling.com, Sept. 25, 2023)
