In 2020, Baricci’s Colombaio Montosoli Brunello di Montalcino shows a deeply concentrated yet classically poised side of this famed hill, with red cherry and plum compote layered over cool flowers, spice and a subtle earthy undertone. The palate is sleek but intense, with silky texture, bright, mouth-watering acidity and refined, firm tannins framing mineral-tinged red berries and a faintly bitter black-fruit bite on the long, savory finish.
