Piancornello Brunello di Montalcino 21
From the minerally volcanic soils of Castelnuovo dell'Abate, Piancornello's 2019 Brunello represents the appellation's cooler, more structured side. A classically composed Sangiovese Grosso: cherry, dried herbs, cedar, iron, and a long, austere finish that will continue to develop for another 10-15 years. Buy it now, open it later.
