Michaela Morris, Novembre 2023 (Millésime 1988)

This bottling marks the 100-year anniversary of the creation of Brunello di Montalcino, and Franco Biondi Santi was very positive about the 1988 vintage, calling it exceptional. After an extremely wet spring, summer was warm with little rainfall and transitioned slowly to the dry, cool conditions at harvest. An exceptionally delineated nose starts with baking spice nuances of cinnamon and nutmeg, before evolving into dried tarragon and mint, then finally tobacco and black tea. Still laser-sharp, the palate is savoury in profile and shored up by steely and thrillingly upright tannins, yet there is a generosity to the fruit that hangs beautifully on the frame. This is ageing seamlessly.

Septembre 2023 (Millésime 1988)

Aromas of antique furniture, spice, dried flowers and some dried cherries. Cooking spices, too. Medium-bodied, chewy and extracted, but it’s exciting to taste it with the chewiness that gives tension and focus. Spicy at the end, like nutmeg and cinnamon. Entrancing finish. Re-release March 2024.

Février 2024 (Millésime 1988)

A garnet color that’s similar to the 2018 in terms of its richness, the 1988 Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva has incredible aromas of raspberry leather and leaps from the glass with layered notes of leather, wild herbs, rosemary, crushed stones, and flint. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied, structured, and vibrant, with angular, bright acidity. The highly perfumed aromatics are fantastic, so the nose is the winner here, but it’s spritely on the palate, salty, and bright with elegant acidity. It might not be the most powerful wine, but it has a lot of pleasure to offer now and over the next several years.
