========= Will 2015 Be a Rosy Year for Wine? ============ As we enter 2015 and look ahead at what it will mean for the world of wine, I’m reminded of this story. If it weren’t fiction, 2009 would have been just the year to set it in—in time to catch the 2010 growing season, the results of which, by all accounts, are very good. This month, the fine wine year will kick off with the release of these 2010 Brunello di Montalcino wines. Made from the Sangiovese grape variety, these reds have a deep structure and bracing tannins. I always find that they’re at their best served alongside the local food: dishes such as braised beef, hare and pasta. Early reports suggest they will cause quite a stir. Quality levels are extremely high, with producers putting the 2010 on a par with the great vintages of 2006 and ’07. Expect plenty of talk and column inches written about how these wines offer great value compared with those of Bordeaux. For More: stoningtonvineyards/
