2001 La Colombina Brunello di Montalcino (750ml)

"89 out of 100 - The estate's 2001 Brunello di Montalcino displays much definition in its plummy dark fruit, mineral and underbrush nuances, with excellent concentration, fine supporting tannins and a somewhat roasted character owing to the southern exposure of the estate's vines. A wine that improved dramatically a few hours after having been opened, this full-bodied, soft-textured Brunello will offer highly enjoyable drinking for at least another ten years. - Antonio Galloni, vinous.com
