"Delicate yet impossible to ignore, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino lifts from the glass with a darkly alluring bouquet of dried flowers, Tuscan dust and black cherries. This is silky-smooth yet racy in style, with cooling acidity and depths of tart wild berry fruits that slowly saturate toward the close. While tannins stain through the finish, the 2019 maintains a lovely freshness, leaving inner roses and licorice to taper off gradually." -Eric Guido

"The certified organic Tassi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino mirrors some of the qualities we saw in the new Rosso (Greppino 193) with a bright and lifted presentation. There is red cherry, pastry cream, plum and rose tea. The effect is delicate and elegant with fine, chalky tannins. These are the good kind of drying tannins that also remain silky. This wine is enjoyable on all fronts, but it won't be ready for prime-time drinking for another year or so." -Monica Larner

"Deeply savory on the nose, with iron-rich soil, cured meat, leather, mixed Mediterranean herbs, sour cherry and cranberry. Salty and tart with wild cherry and wild strawberry, more cranberries and bergamot on the palate. Rolling, polished tannins." -Danielle Callegari
