2003 CANALICCHIO di SOPRA Brunello di Montalcino $68 “This family-run estate makes an excellent Brunello from its 15 hectares of vineyards in the Canalicchio zone of Montalcino. From vintage to vintage the wine shows its characteristic notes of scorched earth and ripe dark fruit. With a few years of bottle age the wines begin to display attractive, heady white truffle overtones. Castello Romitorio favors cask-aging for its Brunello and the wines are made in a fairly traditional style.”–Wine Advocate
