title: Querce Bettina 2011  Brunello di Montalcino
description: Underbrush, charred earth, ripe dark-skinned fruit, grilled herb and a whiff of cooking spice aromas all come together on this chewy red. The round palate doles out fleshy black cherry, cured meat, chopped herb and tobacco while a touch of star anise backs up the finish. Robust, velvety tannins support the juicy fruit. This will offer fine near-to-mid-term pleasure.
variety: Sangiovese
