title: Il Paradiso di Manfredi 2009  Brunello di Montalcino
description: This soulful red opens with earthy aromas of black olive, leather, ripe berry and a whiff of game. The round, enveloping palate delivers fleshy black cherry, blackberry preserve, tobacco and clove alongside firm, velvety tannins. Showing the heat of the vintage, it's already rather accessible but it also has some staying power. Open a couple of hours in advance to let this breathe.
variety: Sangiovese
