($62): It should come as no surprise that Antinori, who, as much as anyone, is responsible for the quality of Tuscan wines, should produce an outstanding Brunello.  They certainly have with their 2010 Pian delle Vigne.  Lofty aromatics predict an exciting wine.  Fine supple tannins surround a solid core sprinkled with dark, almost bitter cherry-like nuances and mineraly overtones.  Despite its depth and ripeness, there’s remarkable elegance in this fresh and lively wine.  The long and succulent finish reinforces the grandeur of this Brunello.  Here’s another one for cellar.
