but should improve and soften more in the next three years

delivering the varietal's classic red and black cherries

but which remain beautifully balanced and fresh-tasting too

offering a touch of salted almond that echoes on the finish

with shades of blue and purple inner florals accentuating dark red fruits

Donatella Cinelli Colombini Casato Prime Donne Riserva, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Italy 2016 Domaine Frantz Chagnoleau but should improve and softenThe Donatella Cinelli Colombini 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is silky and fine, but the wine also shows that special power and intensity that is so specific to this classic growing season. The wine's tannins, freshness and fruit flavors reach a point of harmony, and no one element overshadows the other. There is some crunch or tension on the close that underlines the quality of Sangiovese fruit harvested this year. 95 Pts Robert Parker's Wine
