San Felice Campogiovanni Brunello di Montalcino
75cl
Campogiovanni is an estate run by San Felice in Chianti Classico, and its 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Campogiovanni is a lovely, dark and savory wine to serve with a platter of fatty charcuterie and aged tomme cheese. " The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino from San Felice displays rich black cherry and plum with complements of sweet spice, cedar shavings and cooling mintiness. The textures are silky, ushing in a polished mix of red/black berries laced with salty minerals. It’s medium in body and youthfully compact; yet it is also showing a glimpse of what’s to come, as inner florals build over notes of licorice and cloves. A web of fine tannins coat all that they touch in youthful poise, as this tapers off with violet inflections. This is a very nice expression of the 2016 vintage form southern Montalcino." 93pts Eric Guido Vinous
