barley sugar and wax resin aromas

Variable weather during flowering in May and limited precipitation for the fourth consecutive year

This is also going to require at least a few years to further flesh out and shed the austerity

The Sesta di Sopra 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is very generous and ripe with plush dark fruit

Jean Marc Pillot, Chassagne Montrachet Vergers Clos St Marc Vintage:2014 barley sugar and wax resin(from old vines of an indeterminate age). There is enough sulfur present to push the softly exotic blend of mandarin orange, passion fruit and discreet floral nuances to the background. The medium weight flavors are not as dense as they usually are but I very much like the texture and energy they offer as well as the fine depth and persistence on the notably firm finish. This will need a few years to absorb the sulfur but it should be worth the wait.
