Note di degustazione
Red/garnet-colored, the 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino is expressive on opening with notes of raspberry coulis, menthol, pressed roses, and toasted oak. Medium-bodied, it has good concentration and a tangy lift, with an iron-rich mineral tone and ripe tannins. It falls off a bit earlier than I was expecting or hoping to see, but it has a good deal of charm for near-term drinking. A property of Allegrini in the Veneto, San Polo is organically farmed.

The organic San Polo 2019 Brunello di Montalcino has a savory bouquet with vintage leather, black olive, tilled soil and barbecue smoke. The mouthfeel carries extra heft and big fruit weight, which only serves to underline the oak. There is a gamey quality with fennel-infused salami or cured bresaola. I would suggest a pairing dish of wild boar or stewed rabbit. The tannins are dusty but not intrusive. In all, there is something just a bit off or disjointed on the bouquet of this wine. Production is 45,000 bottles.
The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino excites the senses with an inviting bouquet that mixes vivid black cherries with spiced oranges, sweet roses and cedar. It’s silky-smooth yet energetic with a wave of mineral-tinged red berry fruits that slowly saturate. A coating of fine tannins coats the palate as this finishes classically structured, spicy and long, promising many years of positive development.
Mid to deep ruby with orange tinges. Balsamic nose with a suggestion of fresh mint but still very closed on the fruit. Supple cherry fruit with tangy acidity and structuring, chewy tannins. Well balanced and not ready yet. (WS)
