Note di degustazione
Very leafy and spicy in a positive way, with notes of kiwi peel, stone fruit, leather, straw and licorice. Supple palate with a full body, almost silky tannins and refreshing acidity. Fresh fruit flavors of orange peel and peaches. Tight, youthful finish that’s precise and long. Drink or hold.

The nose of the 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva is pure and inviting, with aromas of red cherry liqueur, rose petals, candied orange peel, fresh rosemary, and wet stones. Long and pure on the palate, it offers beautifully concentrated ripeness, with a weightless feel and a seamless structure with ripe tannins. Everything about it resonates on the palate, and it’s harmonious all the way through. It’s singing now and will have an open drinking window over the next 15-20 years.

The Poggio di Sotto 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva was reticent when I tasted it, probably owing to a period of awkwardness for such a young sample. The immediate suggestion is to give this bottle more time because, tasted now, it was definitely poured before its prime. The bouquet starts off with austere aromas of oil painting or waxed antiques, but those blow off. After that, you get an exciting compilation of redcurrant, cherry skin, rose petal and floral potpourri. This wine is very sprightly on the palate with fresh berry crush, integrated acidity and fine, chalky tannins. Again, this wine needs more time in bottle.
