Bellaria, Brunello Montalcino Assunto Riserva Vintage:2010 dark chocolate characterA Brunello with beautiful earth, berry, mushroom and leaf aromas and flavors. Full body plus a crazy center palate of fruit with chocolate covered cherries and hints of oak. Fantastic depth and tannin structure. Superb in every sense of the word. This is off the charts. From 30 year old vines that yield tiny grapes. 40 months in barrel. Give it two or three years in bottle.
