Note di degustazione
This wine has not yet been released, but it will hit foreign markets in March or April 2025 and the Italian market in September 2025. The Stella di Campalto 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Podere S. Giuseppe Aria is named after the Italian word for "air." The reason for this choice could be linked to the elegantly open-knit texture of the wine that is amply interspaced with layers of dark fruit, spice and crushed stone. That mineral signature is beautiful. Stella di Campalto says the name pays tribute to the manner in which each of her vineyard plots filters air in its own distinct manner, resulting in a unique ripeness. This wine is bright and weightless with a subtle flurry of redcurrant and iris root. The wine does not have the same tannic structure that you get in the Bosco, and for that reason, it remains feather-light and, yes, airy.

The sweetly scented 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Aria is an understated beauty, featuring hints of rose petals, wild strawberries, potpourri and cinnamon sticks. It’s lifted and ethereal, with pillowy textures and a pure blend of wild berries that cascade beneath an air of violet pastille. Steely minerality emerges through the long yet fresh finish as vivid nuances of blackberry, plum and licorice linger on. The 2018 Aria is spellbinding, with an energy that is seldom seen these days in Montalcino.
