white peach and seaweed

There's a focus and precision to this pinot with refined tannins and beautiful fruit

so it's not all barrique

This is very nicely done

pear and light spice hints that is framed by a touch of wood toast

Sesti, Brunello Montalcino Riserva Phenomena Brut Zero white peach and seaweedMedium red. Cherry, plum, mocha and tobacco on the nose, with hints of leather and earth. Surprising acidity gives shape to the smooth, slightly low toned flavors of cherry, plum, mocha and flowers. Comes across as a bit youthfully disjointed today, with a faint green edge to the acidity. Has the energy of the vintage but needs time to harmonize. Very long on the aftertaste. Stephen Tanzer
