About
this Tasting Case:
The previews are over, and we are ready to present our
debut offering of the 2001 Brunellos. Though we offered
a futures selection of '01s last year coupled with Sergio's
preliminary assessment of the vintage (click
here to read), now we're in real time and eager
to deliver the first of a two-part series dedicated to "the
little dark one's" brilliant showings.
This tasting case features these
distinct 2001 Brunellos, complemented with a detailed regional
map
that delineates the nuances defining the geographic microclimates
of Montalcino and their respective translations in the glass.
This articulate and fascinating breakdown is best experienced
when tasting through a selection of the wines. Provide your
palate with a consummate education in Brunello, as you experience
both classic and modern interpretations of Brunello and
refine your ability to identify the signatures of individual
zones in the region.
