Siro Pacenti, Brunello Montalcino Vintage:2001 oyster shell and mandarinPacenti's 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is just as gorgeous as it has always been. Silky, perfumed and super expressive, the 2004 is at a glorious peak of expression. Layers of fruit grow in the glass as the wine continues to flesh out with air. Vivid, layered and poised, the 2004 is a terrific example of the Pacenti style at its best. Antonio Galloni
