DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA E GARANTITA

Vintage: 2006

Score: 94/100

Tasting Notes:“Bright, deep red. Intense perfume of black raspberry and cocoa powder. Dense, sappy and pure, with penetrating acidity framing the red berry, spice and exotic white fruit flavors. There's something Burgundian about this wine's perfume and fruit intensity. A beauty, but lay it down.”

Brunello di montalcino 2004
DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA E GARANTITA

Vintage: 2004

Score: 93/100

Tasting Notes:“Good bright red. Musky cherry, gingerbread and dried rose on the nose, lifted by whiff of blood orange. Silky-sweet and graceful, with a mineral firmness underlying the rather plush strawberry fruit. This impressively deep, classy, scented Brunello finishes with fine-grained tannins and excellent subtle persistence. Delivers lovely pure sangiovese character.”

Brunello di montalcino 2001
DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA E GARANTITA

Vintage: 2001

Score: 91/100

Tasting Notes:“Good bright medium red. Strawberry, baking spices and dried flowers on the perfumed nose. Medium to full in the mouth, with good volume to the sweet, lush flavors of cherry, minerals and spices. A seamless wine but lively harmonious acidity gives it focus. Finishes with fine tannins, very good density and noteworthy persistence of cherry and minerals.”

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO RIS 1997 INTERNATIONAL

Brunello di montalcino riserva 1997
DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA E GARANTITA

Vintage: 1997

Score: 93/100

Tasting Notes:“Dark ruby-red. Exotic but youthful aromas of musky blackberry, black raspberry, cured tobacco and orange peel. Rich, chewy, bright and deep, with explosive, sappy dark berry flavors framed and carried by ripe, harmonious acidity. Impeccably balanced 1997 Brunello, finishing with sweet tannins and very persistent, building fruit.”

ROSSO DI MONTALCINO 2011 INTERNATIONAL

Rosso di montalcino 2011
DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA

Vintage: 2011

Score: 89+/100

Tasting Notes:“Bright red. Captivating aromas of red cherry and flowers are lifted by spicy cinnamon and nutmeg. Then more minerally and austere in the mouth than the spicy, fruity nose suggesed, showing pure but rather clenched red cherry flavors that could use a bit more flesh. Vibrant but harmonious acidity extend the flavors at the back. This very pure, very well made Rosso will likely gain in flesh in time but it's hard going right now. Put this baby Brunello away for a couple of years and see how it develops. My guess is it will evolve positively.”
