Complex and sophisticated with seamless layers of ripe and dried cherries, truffles, caramel, dried flowers, nutmeg, chocolate orange and cassis. It’s full-bodied, layered and polished, with firm tannins that are well integrated. Long and elegant. Delicious already but better after 2024.

The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Filo di Seta lifts from the glass with a beguiling bouquet, showing violets, lavender and stone dust up front that evolve into pretty dried strawberry and hints of clove. This is a Brunello of contrasts, as velvety textures are offset by a salty flourish of minerality, just before masses of red and hints of black fruit descend upon the palate, leaving a primary staining in their wake. Blue- and purple-toned inner florals mingle with a burst of sour citrus, as the 2018 finishes with tremendous length and complexity, which is completely atypical of the vintage. Fine tannins linger, promising a long and steady evolution. The Filo di Seta is a total success for 2018, but will take a good amount of time to fully come around.
