"A firm, wonderfully silky red with plum, berry, cherry and walnut aromas and flavors. It’s tight, very long and linear with tension and focus that goes on for minutes. Best ever? Drink after 2025."

"The Franco Pacenti 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva (with 6,500 bottles made) is a dense and nicely concentrated wine with plush and rich fruit flavors. Blackberry, plum and wild cherry cede to spice, potting soil and blue flower. There is an underlying mineral component as well. Although this Riserva has integrated nicely in the six years since the harvest, the fruit feels fresh and youthful nonetheless. Give it a few more years in your cellar. Some 6,500 bottles were made."
