2016 Livio Sassetti - Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pertimali (750ml)
97+ Points
"The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is brooding and powerful, wafting

up with a darkly floral mix of sweet mint, smoke and animal musk before a

core of black cherry emerges. The textures are like pure, elegant silk,

slowly draped across the palate, delivering an array of opulent black and

red fruits contrasted by zesty citrus tones and spice. The sheer density

here is amazing, but even more impressive is that the 2016 stays in perfect

balance from start to finish, tapering off long, structured and classically

dry. The Pertimali Riserva is created through a selection in the vineyard,

and it spends 48 months refining in oak casks. There will be no Riserva

created in 2017 or 2018
