Altesino, which produced its first Brunello in 1972, always rests it at least two years in oak and four months in bottle before release. 2018 was a very cool year in Brunello, offering respite from the overheated seasons both before and after that. As a result, the wine has more balsamic notes, a fresher mid-palate mixed with forest floor and red fruits, and softer tannins. It is not a rich, dense wine this year, but rather a Bordeaux brick-coloured Brunello that overwhelms you with finesse and flavour. It will be a Brunello you can drink upon release and enjoy while you wait for the bigger, warmer years.
