2010 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva "Diecianni", Tuscany, Italy

Deep and complex, somewhat nutty, tobacco and slightly undergrowthy aroma of ripe rather dark berries with a hint of plums, leather, a hint of dried tomatoes, hints of juniper and meaty tones. Taut, still rather youthful, tart, juicy dark fruit, nutty, leathery, herbal and tobacco notes, some pepper and juniper, tart nutty and smoky hints, salt in the background, present, ripe tannin, has power but also bite, lots of salt, some iodine, dense, deep and complex, very good to long finish. In great condition and still rather young.
