($76) Medium red. Highly perfumed aromas of musky red berries, dried flowers, sandalwood and gingerbread. Dense, seamless and superconcentrated, with sharply focused berry and mineral flavors intensified and lifted by ripe, perfectly integrated acids. This has fruit of steel and superb vinosity and grip. Finishes extremely long and palate-staining, with great lift to its fruit. Built for aging. (Empson U.S.A., Alexandria, VA)

Complex, tertiary aromas. Very firm with lots of fine well integrated acidity and real density. No spurious sweetness. Lots of integrity here. Just starting to drink well.

From its 8 hectares of vineyards outside Montalcino, this small property makes excellent Brunellos in an updated style that marries elements of both traditional and modern schools. Fuligni's beautiful 2001 Brunello di Montalcino offers layers of ripe cherry fruit intermingled with subtle notes of sweet toasted oak, licorice and minerals, with excellent persistence and length in a poised style that captures the stylish, sophisticated qualities of the vintage. This wine will require a few years in the cellar for its tannins to soften and it should drink well to age 20.

Currant, berry and raspberry follow through to a full-bodied palate, with firm yet silky tannins and a fresh finish. Goes on for minutes. Tight and concentrated now. One for the cellar. 2,000 cases made.
