Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona Pianrosso Brunello di Montalcino 2020

Intense, vibrant aromas of strawberries and raspberries, together with cola and flowery notes. Milk and mint nuances, too. Shows a lot of licorice elegance and blood-orange freshness on both the nose and palate with firm, velvety tannins and well-packed, brilliant acidity and a polished finish. Good aftertaste and amazing potential. Very classic. Drinkable now, but best from 2025. (jamessuckling.com,Sept. 25, 2024)
