Unclouded and with a good consistency, Ripe al convent 2010 presents itself with a pleasing and intense red ruby colour with garnet hues. To the nose, the wine is complex and profound with an initially prevalent fruity presence of small black and red fruits such as plums, blackberries, and blackcurrant, which evolves into spiced vanilla notes and toasted scents of coffee, cocoa and tobacco. When tasted, the wine is warm, soft and balanced, and densely rich in tannins, which are well supported by the alcohol content and an acidity that is well balance by the other components. Tasted in December 2015. Serving suggestions Stews, slow-cooked meat dishes, and aged cheeses.
Wow. This shows the density and greatness of the 2010 vintage. Dense and so rich yet lively and agile. Super polished tannins and a persistent finish. Love the quality of the tannins. Drink or hold. Lovely potential for aging. Amazing Brunello.
