Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Montosoli 1995
Slow Sunday night so we decided to finish off our balance wine from the Coravin program available in Osteria Mozza. It has been a little aged for the Brunello and the sediments was rightfully present.
The color was almost brick red with cloudy brown rim.
On the nose it shows a matured ready developed red wine consists of dried red prunes and raisins character. Secondary nose was prominent with spices and chinese herbs, black dates and licorice. A little stalky smell maybe because of the sediments was not properly filter earlier on.
Palate was dry, coated with medium rounded tannins with baking spices flavor lingering. Little coffee flavors as well. Acidity was on the medium side but i found that maybe it was on the downhill where it makes my mouth starts to be watery. Not too bad for the price range and the food that we served in the restaurant matched really well with it. Unfortunately I need to remove it from the list as it was the last bottle in our cellar.
