Pertimali (Livio Sassetti)
Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
Just double decanted a few minutes ago. Mature color with lots of rusty edges. Nice nose, lots of stuff, terracotta tiles, iodine, mahogany furniture, still some nice plummy fruit. Lots of life on the palate. Fruit, earth, leather flavors. Vigorous but fine grained tannins, nice acidity. On the leaner side but nice length. Really fine effort in a tough year.

Nice BdM from a weak vintage. Lively red and black berry fruits upfront followed by cedar, fresh herbs, incense, and autumn leaf. Juicy palate with supple texture. Dusty powdery tannins.

2021 fall. Relatively restrained, a bit shy, classically styled
