Tassi Brunello di Montalcino 2019
2019 is one of those Montalcino vintages people will still be arguing about in ten years, and mostly in its favor: classically proportioned, fresh, structured without being heavy. Tassi farms organically and makes Brunello the traditional way, from Sangiovese Grosso, and the wine reflects exactly that. It is savory rather than sweet, built on acidity and fine tannin instead of extract, with tart red fruit, leather, dried herbs, and a balsamic edge. The tannins grip but stay silky. It will open up with a decant and a big meal tonight, though it really wants a few more years. If you like Brunello that tastes like Sangiovese and not like a barrel, this is the address.
