2012 VINTAGE ONLY; 95PTS, WINE SPECTATOR One of the most sought after wines from Montalcino, Montosoli is consistently a blockbuster red. Delicious blend of black cherry, raspberry, violet, licorice, vanilla and black pepper with a warm, long-lasting finish.
Ruby-red with a garnet rim, this wine's bouquet displays ample aromas of violet, wild berries, tobacco, chocolate, and vanilla. On the palate, Altesino Brunello is rich, full-bodied, and velvety.
95 PTS JAMES SUCKLING. The '10 Altesino shows wonderful decadent aromas of musk, orange peel and plum; full body with soft tannins and a long rich finish
