Zwei Flaschen Brunello di Montalcino von La Serena aus den Jahrgängen 2003, 2004 und 2006 im blauen Präsentkarton. In der Nase mit Noten nach Sandelholz, Veilchen und Gewürznelken, dann viel reife Früchte und Beeren. Am Gaumen dicht, kompakt, viel festes Tannin, würzig und lang. (superiore.de)
"La Serena's sumptuous 2003 Brunello di Montalcino flows onto the palate in an expansive, full-bodied expression of super-ripe dark cherries, leather, spices, vanillin and sweet toasted oak. It possesses gorgeous inner perfume and notable length on the palate, with notes of sweetness from the oak that linger on the long finish. This is a very pretty example of modern-style Brunello." Robert Parker
"Blackberries, roses and blueberries on the nose follow through to a full body, with silky tannins and a sweet fruit aftertaste. Lots of sweet raspberries and strawberries on the finish. A delicious red already." Wine Spectator über den 2004er
"The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is an exciting, full-throttle wine bursting with dark fruit, mocha, chocolate, spices, roasted coffee beans and spices. The intensity of the fruit builds towards the enveloping, round finish. Despite its size, the wine is already pretty open. I don't think this will be a long-term ager, but it should drink very nicely over the medium term." Robert Parker
