Note di degustazione
A very impressive showing for the second vintage from Castello di Solomeo, Brunello Cucinelli's Umbrian wine estate. Blending Bordeaux varieties with Sangiovese, the 2019 is a serious wine that is drinking beautifully already and would compete with many Super Tuscans or top Bordeaux. There's great purity of fruit – with cherries, raspberries and blackberries in abundance. With great balance and energy, it feels very sophisticated and stylish. The tannins are super polished and velvety, while there's terrific acidity, complexity and a very long finish too. While it would no doubt benefit from a few years in the cellar, it is enjoyed already, especially with a couple of hours in a decanter.

From a vintage that delivers extra concentration and richness, the Castello di Solomeo 2019 Brunello Cucinelli does indeed show more overall volume. It makes an elegant textural impact on the palate with dark fruit, spice and earth. You feel the ripeness of the fruit and a perfumed quality that comes across as rose and pressed violet. The blend is Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese.
