Antinori Pian delle Vigne Vignaferrovia Riserva Brunello di Montalcino 2010

Here’s a wine that opens to a beautifully dark and bold appearance. The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pian delle Vigne Vignaferrovia sees fruit sourced from a slightly higher altitude compared to the Brunello annata. As a result, you get more definition and sharpness here. This Brunello shows a great level of depth and structure with soft lines, a rich texture and general opulence. The wine is aged in small barrel and sees a second phase of aging in larger oak casks. Drink date: 2017-2030. Score – 93. (Monica Larner, robertparker.com, March 3, 2016)
