I bought a half case, and tried the first bottle last night. My socks would have been knocked off if this wine cost twice as much! Just ordered a case and thinking that might not suffice...
Smooth as a fine Montalcino.

I love Brunello Montalcinos. This wine is as good for less than one-fifth the price. You are going to want at least a case to have on hand for special ossasions, gifts, or everyday dining. Goes well with beef, pork, Italian food, and conversation. Highly recommended!
