Tasting Notes
*A MINIMUM 3 BOTTLE COSTANTI PURCHASE REQUIRED WITHIN OUR CURRENT OFFER IF ORDERING 1X2016 COSTANTI RISERVA* - PLEASE ENQUIRE FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
A deeply sensual bouquet of freshly sliced plums, crushed violets, mentholated herbs and Tuscan dust rises up from the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. This is deeply textural while also cool-toned and refined, with mineral-tinged red and black berries cascading across a core of brisk acidity. Tension builds throughout, as grippy tannins mount toward the close, nicely contrasted by a burst of sour citrus. There's a crystalline structure to the 2016 that tempts the imagination as to what the future will bring, and it tapers off long, youthfully poised, yet also remarkably fresh. Time will only increase the depths of the 2016 Riserva, a wine that seriously look forward to tasting again in five to ten years. Tasted October 2021. Eric Guido for Antonio Galloni
