Bianchini has done a terrific job with the 2008 Brunello di Montalcino. Sweet floral notes meld into dark cherries, cloves and leather. A bold, fruit-driven Brunello, the 2008 impresses for its balance and sensual, inviting personality. This is not a shy wine by any means. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2020.
Proprietor Paolo Bianchini suffered the same fate as many of his colleagues in 2008, which is to say, significant crop loss due to hail in both April and August. Still, this is a solid set of new releases. Bianchini has decided to wait one more year before releasing his flagship Brunello Riserva Vigna di Pianrosso Santa Caterina d’Oro.
