Tasting Notes
Now identified by the Gaiole subregion on the back label, this Gran Selezione opens with a bouquet of carefully ripened candied cherry, iris root, dried mint, and spice. The palate is generous and elegant with vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a lasting finish that echoes the fruit and evokes mineral and Mediterranean scrub elements. One of the finest editions Vinous has tasted from Brolio — 98+ Luca Gardini, 96 James Suckling, 96 Wine Critics, 94 Robert Parker.
