Fresh memories of summer strawberries and crunchy cherries invade the primary scene. In the background there's talcum, face powder and Mediterranean herbs such as thyme and marjoram. Medium to full bodied on the palate, light tannins and a really tasty, savoury finale. Better from 2024.

From vintner Luigi Ananìa, the La Torre 2018 Brunello di Montalcino offers a good sense of volume and richness without ever feeling too heavy. The wine maintains etched lines over a lean-bodied approach and dry tannins. There is dried cherry, grilled earth, blue flower and soft earth. Pretty mineral nuances follow suit. Fruit is sourced from across 4.9 hectares of vines at 420 meters in elevation. Some 14,000 bottles were made. Drink 2024-2037.

La Torre is located in Sant'Angelo in Colle and has vineyards at 420 meters in elevation. Proprietor Luigi Ananìa has been focused on changing out some older barrels this past year, and he is very happy with the result. Production is organic since 2016.
