Note di degustazione
Pouring a medium red hue, the 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino shows more depth at first impression, with darker cherry fruit, licorice, and deeper mineral tones on the nose, while still holding onto terrific clarity. The palate is medium to full-bodied and long, with ripe tannins, refreshing acidity, and a salty finish that stays focused and energetic without drifting toward oxidation. It’s showing beautifully today and should drink well for 15-20 years. Drink 2026-2046.

The 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino sports a bright ruby red color and is lush with ripe aromas of pure cherry liqueur, orange peel and oils, toasted earth, delicate cedar spice, and darker wet stone, with just a touch of rustic saddle leather on my second tasting. It's saturating and energetic on the palate, with loads of salty energy coursing through the wine, refreshing acidity, and a snappy feel with coiled ripe tannins. I like the energy this wine brings, and it's only going to improve with time. Give it a few more years and drink it over the next couple of decades. At my second tasting, it felt more approachable in its youth and was refined and well-balanced.
The Gianni Brunelli Le Chiuse di Sotto 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is balanced, finely textured and shows smooth consistency over the palate. There is a lot of life in this vibrant Brunello. Red and purple fruits segue to sweet earth and iris root. I especially love the mouthfeel achieved here. It's that combination of richness and extreme silkiness that sets it apart. This is a release of 16,907 bottles plus larger formats.
Just mid ruby. Cardamom and morocco-leather hints and iodine, minerally notes on the nose. Compact, youthful cherry-fruit palate with delicious chewy tannins taking the lead on the aromatic fruit finish. Great potential. (WS)
