From the homonymous vineyard planted in 1999 in Castelnuovo dell’Abate,
another piece of the impeccable work done by Tassi Winery. Nose with
notes of raspberry, touches of lemongrass and peony, mentholated finish.
Sapid mouthfeel, with a return of raspberry and peony notes.

"The organic Tassi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Giuseppe Tassi has a dusty quality with petrichor and crushed stone. Those mineral tones frame a core of wild cherry, redcurrant, small forest berries, grilled herb and pressed blue flower. Tassi kicks it out of the ballpark with this very refined and elegant Brunello. The tannins are almost glossy or polished in a delicate, tactile manner. Drink Date: 2025-2045"

The 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino Giuseppe Tassi pours a medium ruby color and is a little closed on the nose initially, needing some coaxing before it really starts to sing. As it opens, it reveals seamless notes of cherry liqueur, mocha, licorice, and pine. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it’s long and elegant, with ripe tannins, pure concentration, great persistence, and outstanding depth. It has a bit of warmth on the finish, but it’s fantastically balanced and is a wine built for the long haul. Drink 2024-2045.
