The 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino Giuseppe Tassi pours a medium ruby color and is a little closed on the nose initially, needing some coaxing before it really starts to sing. As it opens, it reveals seamless notes of cherry liqueur, mocha, licorice, and pine. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it’s long and elegant, with ripe tannins, pure concentration, great persistence, and outstanding depth. It has a bit of warmth on the finish, but it’s fantastically balanced and is a wine built for the long haul. Drink 2024-2045.
