Reviews 95 points Vinous "Austere, medium in body and classic in feel, with that extra bit of textural resonance that is such a Brunate signature, the 2018 has real potential. Dark cherry, melted road tar, tobacco, spice, menthol, sage and licorice all build in the glass. (AG)" 17.5 points Jancis Robinson "A distinctly perfumed nose and a little fuller than the Tre Tine with a layer of savoury spice underpinning the fruit. Becomes more complex with aeration, but this is far from ready. Sappy, nervy fruit but still compact. Fantastic balance and fine but firm tannins, which are super-elegant while coating the fruit. Very long and transparent. (WS)"
