Luca Gardini: 98 points

“Nort-eastern side of Montalcino, a historic and glorious winery, that keeps faithful to its interpretations of classic and juicy Brunello. Nose of blueberry, with touches of eucalyptus, orange peel and rhubarb. The mouthfeel is dense-sapid, crisp, with fruity-citrusy return.�

“The 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino is ripe with cherry leather, a bit of umami with dried shitake, and licorice candy. It is medium-framed but has elegant concentration, with wild strawberry, fresh herbs, and lavender. It is a very attractive wine to drink 2024-2036.�

“Shining, bright ruby colour with medium density. Open and inviting nose with fine notes of cherries and blood orange, very clear. Upon opening a lot of ripe berry fruit, raspberries and dark cherries. Finely-meshed tannin, light-footed and lively with a salty finish.�

“The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino is wonderfully perfumed in the glass, with dusty rose and licorice tones giving way to dried strawberries and hints of worn leather. This is a soft and delicate style of Sangiovese with vivid blackberry and cherry fruits that cascade across a core of saline-minerality. It tannins are crunchy, yet don't get in the way of the 2018s energetic feel as it finishes potent and long with a hind of black currant and cocoa that lingers. Drinking window: 2024-2031.� – Eric Guido
