Parker about Brunello di Montalcino Greppo Riserva 1995
The 1995 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva opens to a dark garnet appearance and shows more visible concentration compared to the other library selection vintages presented at this tasting. The bouquet is broad and far reaching in character with dried blackberry and plum followed by savory tobacco and spice. This vintage is fleshy, rich and powerful. It offers balanced tertiary aromas, but they are not the protagonist, and that sense of impeccable balance serves as a measure of how well this wine has held up over time.

Suckling over Brunello di Montalcino Greppo Riserva 1995
Aromas of walnuts, dark fruit and dark chocolate. Some leather and licorice. Full-bodied, rich and chewy with firm and slightly dry tannins. But there's freshness and brightness. Tastes of tradition.
