Fattoria dei Barbi Brunello di Montalcino 1997
Sangiovese
from Tuscany, Italy
winemaker's notes:
"A very ripe red, with tar and raisons, turning to dried cherries on the nose. Full-bodied and very thick, with a peppery character. Tannic. Slightly rustic, but impressive in it's weight and power." -J.S, Wine Spectator

EXCELLENT! Great with a meal -- I recommend beef wellington -- or all by itself. If you like a nice, full, slightly spicey red, go for it!
