Castello Banfi Brunello 2020 Poggio alle Mura Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

"A sleek, linear red, with a racy profile permeated with cherry, strawberry, currant and wild herb flavors. There are firm tannins, yet this is harmonious, and the fruit is in lockstep with its structure and fluid texture. Shows fine length, adding mineral and black pepper elements. Best from 2027 through 2043" Bruce Sanderson

Castello Banfi Brunello 2020 Vigna Marrucheto Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

"A ray of cherry cuts through this tightly woven red, lending an air of freshness and accessibility to the otherwise compact profile. Strawberry, raspberry, rose and mineral flavors complete the spectrum. There's tension between its elegance and punch, with density and vivid acidity driving the terrific aftertaste. Best from 2028 through 2046." Bruce Sanderson

There’s a rare depth and richness to this with dark plums and cherries as well as bark and forest-floor undertones. Full-bodied but not overpowering with chewy and polished tannins. Extremely persistent. Needs time to soften. Another great riserva like the 2016. Best after 2028.

Tasted in a vertical setting of 2015 through 2020, the 2020 Thick Skinned is 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 41% Malbec and only 1% Petit Verdot. Still a baby and set to be released at the end of 2024, it’s still incredibly tight and youthful but has good bones. Firm, bold, spicy and juicy, it’s like a puppy with big floppy ears and paws that will undoubtedly grow into its size. With plenty of hedonistic, juicy dark red fruit flavors and oak essences, this will be a knockout for years to come. Your patience will be rewarded.

Tasted in a vertical setting of 2015 through 2020, the 2019 Thick Skinned is over half Cabernet Sauvignon with a quarter Malbec and 15% Petit Verdot. The 2019 has some similarities with the 2018, yet it is still firm and tannic, offering a dusty and rustic nose that needs some time to fill its shoes. Full-bodied, spicy and fresh, the Cabernet blend should find its stride in about two years. Until then, it will have plenty of time to hit its cadence.

This is indeed a sweet wine. The wine also has plenty of acidity, so it has that going for it. Aromas of lemon tarts and 7-Up are a canary in the residual sugar coal mine.

Natura 2021 Natura Merlot

This Merlot has nice acidity and a spicy nose that includes hints of berries. Chewy tannins frame a palate with mild blackberry flavors that fade into a brief finish.

Aromas of ripe berries introduce a palate with the same fruit notes and a touch of grass. It's an easy-sipping wine, with light tannins and gentle acidity.
