Note di degustazione
Here's an elegant and classic expression of the vintage. The Sesta di Sopra 2015 Brunello di Montalcino shows solid balance with its dark fruit flavors offset by tart cherry and fresh menthol. The oak tones are nicely tucked in and integrated, offering substance that builds the wine's structure but does not take away from its elegance. Balanced acidity adds a pretty touch to the mouthfeel. Some 4,300 bottles were made.

The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino is dark, dusty and savory in its aromatics, with crushed black cherry, cedar, leather, white smoke and violets. Soft, almost-creamy textures meld into ripe cherry, sweet herbs, and a hint of spice as pretty inner florals develop over a core of brisk acids. The finish is long, with a staining of red fruits offset by a mineral twang and hints of fine tannin. The 2015 Sesta di Sopra isn’t a big wine; instead it impresses on its round and jovial personality, without ever going overboard.
Tasted blind. Deep ruby with bright orange tinges. Lots of concentrated dark fruit on the nose as well as palate and with bags of powerful tannins. Quite a powerful and concentrated wine, almost a bit too much so. (WS)
Beautiful ripeness, but also balance on the nose, which features cinnamon, dried cedar, dried plums, dark chocolate and licorice. Expansive and comprehensive on the palate with outward-veering tannins and lots of treacle-tart undertones. Chewy and decadent. Drink from 2025.
