  Nostravita Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2006

  Snoothrank:

  Intense ruby red. Beautiful cherries and red berries on the nose, ebbing into dried roses and spice. Fruit forward with floral undertones. Warm, soft on the palate, with good structure and tannins.

  Tenuta Carlina Brunello di Montalcino la Togata 2001

  Snoothrank:

  "96 out of 100...Black as night, with aromas of blackberry, violet, flowers and Indian spices. Full-bodied, with loads of tannins, but ultrarefined. Very long and beautiful, with great texture. This is 1997 again. Best after 2010. 500 cases made." - WS

Very dry. Noticed a number of guests picking up and looking at the bottle. Pulled out the second bottle which I rarely do. A friend that did not attend tried it a few days later and though it was closed and over the top.    (hide)

  Vitanza Brunello di Montalcino 2003

  Snoothrank:

  Medium-deep brick-tinged ruby color in the glass with vivid aromas of bright cherry and raspberry accompanied by a healthy dose of oak, mushroom, tobacco and spice. Flavors on the palate follow the nose, while being framed by firm tannins and a strong acid backbone. In it's youth... Read moreMedium-deep brick-tinged ruby color in the glass with vivid aromas of bright cherry and raspberry accompanied by a healthy dose of oak, mushroom, tobacco and spice. Flavors on the palate follow the nose, while being framed by firm tannins and a strong acid backbone. In it's youth this wine is sturdy, and with another 3-5 years in the bottle it's bold components will integrate and broaden to make for a cohesive, balanced and powerful Brunello experience.    (hide)

  Salve. I live in Montalcino so I buy directly from them - we have 15+ wine shops here but the ones I quoted are the big players who have signs saying that they ship all over the world. The costs for shipments to the US is usually around 140 Euros for 12 bottles.

  Thanks for the links to the Montalcino wineshops, Laurapal. Have you, or anyone else you know, used them for purchasing from overseas? The enotecapierangioli website seems, at first glance, the easiest to deal with....
