The 2012 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino is another magnificent effort to add to the long list of great wines from Vincenzo Abbruzzese. This seductive Brunello begins to open with wonderful aromatics of dark cherries and blackberries woven together with spices, leather, smoke, black truffles and hints of fresh florals all taking shape. On the palate this is full-bodied, with wonderful overall structure and depth leading to flavors of dark fruits and spices that continue to persist on the long finish. This is an excellent Brunello, which has the makeup to age for many years to come. (Best 2019-2032) - April, 2017 (JD)
