Donatella Cinelli Colombini Brunello Riserva Italy 2018 Cesanese del Piglio and a dash of RieslingThe nose leads with a cherry vanilla sweetness, then dives into earthy aromas of soil and roots, but developing undertones of cola and mint preserve that lightly medicinal feel. The palate brings strawberries, along with more cherries and mint, before a finish that's both hot and saline, like a Himalayan salt sauna Tannins and acid stand in balanced tension. 94 Pts Wine Enthusiast
