Intense ruby red with garnet shades. At first intense aromas of ripe fruit like sour cherry and blackberry well integrated with tertiary elements given by the long aging in big barrels and the necessary bottle refining. Smooth cherries, great structure, pure elegance.
Wine Advocate Review:
Culled from vineyards that enjoy the protection of Monte Amiata to the southeast, the Casa Raia 2015 Brunello di Montalcino opens to a note of sweet and playful ripeness that recalls bold cherry and blackberry confit. That softness continues to the palate, and the wine wraps thickly over the senses with more fruity richness. The wine plays its strongest cards in terms of texture, and it expertly displays the warmth and generosity of this very exuberant and sunshine-driven vintage. Savor it with a sausage and zucchini pasta. Anticipated Maturity: 2021-2030
