Intense and bright ruby red color, ample and persistent bouquet with elegant hints of fruit, ethereal notes of morello cherry in alcohol, suggestions of dried tobacco and complex hints of sweet spices. Velvety, opulent and long tannins, well supported by a crunchy acidity that leaves no doubt about the ability to long aging. Juicy, savory and very mineral finish, characterized by an endless taste energy, which stimulates salivation and recalls important meat-based foods, with which the partnership of this Reserve can reach perfection. Wine with a strong personality. Remarkable wine gives its best in combination with red meat and typical Tuscan cuisine, game aged cheeses, wine also for meditation.

The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Gemini shows a ripe yet earthy display of forest berries with spicy florals, notes of moist soil, crushed stone and hints of animal musk. On the palate, soft textures envelop the senses in a coating of sweet and sour red fruits and spice with a citrus twang, as tannins slowly mount, yet the Gemini maintains freshness beautifully through zesty acids and inner florals. The finish is long, turning more toward the youthfully tart side, with saturating spices and grippy tannins clenching the senses. It has many years to go before all of the elements come into balance, but once they do, pure beauty. I tasted the 2015 Gemini over the course of two days and it just kept getting better.
