Default Brunello and a Rosso..

Dad brought back some wines from Italy this week.

One is a Ferro di Burroni Carlo Brunello di Montalcino '97 and the other is
a Castello di Banfi Rosso di Montalcino '97.

Now, I don't know much about Montalcino wines, aside from the fact that
their a wee bit pricey, so I have a simple question: which should I drink
first? I'm expecting the rosso to be softer and more approachable, but I'm
not certain as to what to expect.

I usually hate these kind of posts, 'cause "de gustibus non blah blah..."
but I'm excited about these wines and I don't want to stuff it up

Follow Your intuition - drink the rosso first.
