Note di degustazione
The 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino pours a ruby/garnet color and leaps from the glass with lots of purity and personality, revealing notes of wild cherries, pine needles, Mediterranean herbs, and crushed roses. Medium-bodied, it’s snappy with fine tannins, crunchy acidity, and a mouthwatering mineral finish. It’s zesty and inviting, with refreshing lift and a cooling sensibility, and although it’s light on its feet, it’s highly expressive. Very well done. Drink 2024-2034.

Offering a clean and bright fruit profile, the Fattoria dei Barbi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino shows plum, dark cherry and blackberry. The fruit presented in this vintage is fresh, velvety, nicely contoured and still tastes quite primary in nature. This bodes well for the wine's future bottle evolution. The tannins are slightly chalky but supported by rich texture. This is from a widely distributed production of 160,000 bottles that will hit the market in January 2024. Great job here.
The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a mentholated freshness, blending savory herbs with wild strawberries and camphor hints. It’s softly textured and supple in feel, more lifted than expected. Crisp red berry fruits cascade throughout and are supported by brisk acidity. This finishes tannic and long, leaving a bitter tinge to linger as hints of licorice fade. I find myself craving a little more flesh on the bone. That said, with maturity should also come more fat that should help to balance the 2019.
Lustrous mid to deep ruby. Brooding and still closed on the nose. Supple, focused cherry fruit with fine-ground tannins. Youthful and with proper grip on the finish. Needs more time. (WS)
