Carpineto Riserva Brunello di Montalcino 2019

A racy style, this reveals black cherry, blackberry, licorice, spice, iron and underbrush notes. Solid tannins lay the groundwork for future development, while the fruit lingers. Balanced and long, this red picks up more balsamic details on the chalky finish. Best from 2028 through 2047. Score – 95. (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, June 30, 2025)
