The wine pours a vibrant ruby-red color with a subtle garnet rim. On the nose, it delivers an aromatic bouquet of violet, wild berries, tobacco, chocolate, and vanilla, complemented by fresh undertones of red cherries, dried herbs, and a hint of citrus peel. The palate is rich, full-bodied, and velvety, balancing a fruit-forward core of plums and wild strawberries with a vibrant spine of acidity. This vintage is characterized by a focused, linear structure and well-defined, fine-grained tannins that lead into a long, mouthwatering, and savory finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"margin-top: 24px;\" role=\"button\" class=\"MuiTypography-root MuiTypography-caption mui-style-d5or0m\"\u003e\u003c!--EndFragment --\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e750ml\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Taylor's Wine Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48369741594845,"sku":null,"price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/5318\/files\/altesino-2019-brunello-di-montalcino-wine-taylors-shop-789.jpg?v=1733033295","url":"https:\/\/taylorswineshop.com\/products\/altesino-2021-brunello-di-montalcino","provider":"Taylor's Wine Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
