Banfi Brunello di Montalcino - 1999 (750ml) Veneto the 2009 Hermitage Ex-Voto isImpressive saturated ruby, extremely dark for Brunello. Brooding aromas of dark berry syrup and licorice; distinct hints of surmaturite Then big, broad and extremely unevolved; highly concentrated but currently monolithic, and not really displaying its fruit. Finishes with big, chewy but ultimately rather fine tannins. Impressive in a modern style, but is this too solid for its own good? Vinous 90(+?) points
