"The 1990 Brunello di Montalcino Rennina exhibits a mature ruby/garnet color, and a remarkably open, sexy, lush, and opulent personality. Sweet, jammy aromas of red fruits, smoked nuts, roasted herbs, and spice soar from the glass of this expressive Brunello. Soft, expansive, and silky, this full-bodied wine reveals no hard edges, and tastes great, but seemingly is close to full maturity. There is no denying the seductive power and allure this Brunello possesses."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
