Note di degustazione
The Talenti 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Piero is softly contoured and nicely balanced with a plush and enriched side that contrasts heavier aromas of spice and smoke. The wine reaches good balance while showing some of the density and extra concentration that you might associate with a hot vintage such as 2017. Fruit comes from a two-hectare parcel with galestro soils. Just 3,800 bottles were made.

Mid ruby. Generous nose with hints of oak, malt and cherry. Deep and lush and with vibrant acidity and polished grainy tannins streamlining the whole. Captivating. (WS)
The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Piero is mysteriously dark and heady, the display of smoke and ashen stone evolving to show crushed blackberries, savory herbs and hints of camphor. The textures are velvety and dense, and a wave of mineral-tinged red and black fruits drenches the palate in primary depths of concentration. Beneath it all, a coating of fine-grained tannins settles in, slowly working to encase the senses with youthful tension and poise. Even still, a lasting mix of cherries, black tea and menthol carries on for what seems like a full minute. While I don’t expect this to mature as gracefully as past renditions of the single-vineyard Piero, it’s a total success for the vintage.
