2012 Le Potazzine di Gorelli Brunello

Bright, dark red with a hint of amber at the rim. Red plum, redcurrant, camphor and graphite on the rather open-knit nose. At once dense and suave, displaying insidious intensity to the complex flavors of red cherry, tobacco leaf and graphite. This wonderfully silky, sweet Brunello finishes with fine-grained tannins and lingering mineral nuances. 92 points
