Lisini, Brunello Montalcino Ugolaia Vintage:2010 Exemplary white Bordeaux

Exemplary white Bordeaux

Here the almost unbelievably complex nose is notably more restrained than that of the Demoiselles with its pure white rose

though I wonder if it is starting to close down

The straight Pira is quite delicate

Lisini, Brunello Montalcino Ugolaia Vintage:2010 Exemplary white BordeauxThis complex red shows a duality between its rose, strawberry and currant aromas and its savory notes of earth, tobacco and mineral. The muscular structure is more allied to the latter, but this remains fresh, resonant and long. You could match this to a grilled steak now or let mellow for a few years. Best from 2019 through 2035. 700 cases made. BS
