Baricci Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva Nello 2016 750 ML

Lively ruby color with garnet reflections. It opens with hints of black cherry, blackberry, chocolate and Mediterranean scrub. On the palate it is enveloping and velvety, with great acidity backed by perfectly integrated and tasty tannins. Very long and persistent finish.

Wine Advocate: The Baricci 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Nello is elegant and fine but certainly sharper and more linear compared to the fleshier 2015 vintage. This wine is well-suited to long-term aging. Time in the bottle will help it to flesh out and expand, texturally speaking. The wine is etched and focused with cassis, red berry and crushed limestone. You also get hints of wild herb and lavender. This is a very pretty Riserva, and as its opens, it begins to show riper and richer black fruit.
Wine Spectator: This rich, round red is hallmarked by bright black cherry, blackberry and black currant fruit flavors. Shows grace notes of iron, tar and eucalyptus, which chime in as the beefy structure exerts its influence on the finish. Fine balance and length.
