LA GERLA Brunello di Montalcino 'Riserva gli Angeli' 2008

The 2008 'Riserva gli Angeli' is a striking Brunello, which comes from La Gerla’s single vineyard cru of Gli Angeli. Showing wonderful class and sophisticaton, this begins with absolutely gorgeous aromas of fresh blackberries and sweet red plums, followed by dried floral, tobacco, spices and hints of vanilla, which all come together beautifully. On the palate this possesses stunning balance, focus and depth, with a lovely firm, yet silky texture that transitions seamlessly onto the silky finish where it displays impresses length. Overall, this is a brilliant effort which is already showing lots of character, however patience will be required, as this age worthy Brunello will demand some cellaring before reveals its full potential.
