BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO Riserva Fuligni 2016
Revisiting the stunning 2016 Riserva is a treat. Showing structure, vibrancy and elegance, it opens with enticing aromas of rose, Mediterranean herb and balsamic scents of eucalyptus. All about finesse, the elegant, full-bodied and focused palate features crushed raspberry, red cherry, licorice and tobacco accompanied by taut, refined tannins. It’s well balanced and vibrant, with bright acidity while a saline mineral note lends depth to the close. Still incredibly youthful at eight, this has years to go. What a gorgeous wine. Drink 2026–2046. Abv: 14.5%
CLOS VOUGEOT Grand Cru Henri Boillot 2016
The 2016 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru has a fragrant bouquet with red cherries and hints of kirsch, gently unfolding with time and not as immediate as its peers. The palate is well balanced with sappy red fruit, a slightly rustic frame of tannin with some dryness towards the spice-tinged finish. It improves considerably in the glass, gaining more personality and harmony, though never really captures the heart. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.
