2013 was a superb vintage in Tuscany and Scopetone has really let it shine in this bottling of their Brunello di Montalcino. Deep black cherry bound in a leathery, well-integrated tannic texture and a bright, refreshing finish scream for bistecca alla fiorentina and herb-roasted potatoes. Two years in Slovenian oak and 6 years in bottle have let this powerful Sangiovese Grosso evolve into a lively, exciting wine that pleases all the way... at this price even to the bank! Drink it now with an hour or two of decanting, or hide it in the back of you cave for 10 more years.
