2018 Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino Vigna del Lago

96+ Points: The 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino Vigna Del Lago brings a little more concentration to the table as well as a more savory edge. Noted by ripe cherry, tomato leaf, anise, toasted cedar, and saddle leather, it is medium-bodied but with a bit of amplified core, and reveals notes of ripe raspberry, blood orange, and dried roses on the palate. It is another expressive and elegant wine with fine tannins, refreshing acidity, and a long finish. Detailed and polished, while pure and transparent, it will drink well 2025-2040.
