Description
With dry conditions continuing into September, the Padelletti estate says that ripeness proceeded rapidly. Brunello grapes were harvested on 15 September – a full two weeks earlier than average – in order to preserve freshness and fragrance. This certainly manifests in the glass. Beautifully scented tea leaf, tobacco and wet earth surge on the nose. The palate displays ample substance, with proper density of sweet, ripe raspberry and layers of fruit laminated between powdery tannins, underscored by scintillating acidity. Rose perfume builds with intensity, persisting on the finish. Requires patience.
