Excellent! Tasted along side the 2010 Terralsole brunello, which was slightly better at this point but this was amazing as well! — 6 years ago

Delectable harangues me when I do not post as frequently as they would like. I decided I would share 160 bottles that I have yet to review from the past year. Highest rating I've ever assigned. — 10 years ago

Il Palazzone

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 1996

Jay Kline

9.2

This was a pre-Parson Il Palazzone, back when Mario Bollag (now Terralsole) owned the property. Dick (Parson) invested a lot into Il Palazzone after 2000 and the estate’s reputation today is largely known under his stuardship.

Poured into a decanter about 2 1/2 hours prior to service to remove sediment and give this 28-year old some air. In the glass, the 1996 pours a deep garnet with a brown tinge and a near opaque core. Medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous, with some VA and notes of desiccated, red and black fruit: Morello cherries, strawberries, brambles, figs, along with leather, porcini, forest floor, espresso, and spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins (fully integrated) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium, and the body is medium. White this freshened up with air (recommended), it is clearly in the sunset of its life. That being said, it has plenty of stories to tell. Drink now with a decant. — 2 years ago
