Renieri Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2015

Superb with our Margarita Pizza. Big Cherry aromas with the slightest tawny tinge as I poured. Bold flavors with a long finish. Two bottles left! — 4 months ago

Uccelliera

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013

Medium bodied, firmly structured and rather energetic, it sports a reserved and savory profile of aromatic wild herbs and spicy underbrush fruit.

As it warmed up in the stemware, it began to better display a balanced structure with vibrant acidity and fine grained tannins. The finish is juicy and long.

Very good Rosso di Montalcino! Especially with hard cheese and Italian bread! Would also be great with pasta, grilled meats, etc al. Just okay as a sipping wine but comes alive with food!Cherries, brambley fruits, low tannins, good qpr especially as compared to Brunello! — 7 months ago

This was singing last night. Nice nose of mature cherries and spice box. Mid palate displays density and weight. Packed with ripe cherries and a hint of tobacco, complemented with a moderate tannin structure. Oak treatment was in the background. Finished with length and a hint of soft brown sugar. Acidity is still prominent so I assume you could continue to hold this for another 7 years with ease. — 4 months ago

Fattoria La Gerla

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2019

2019 vintage. PNP'd. Light-medium body. Consistent palate push throughout. Above average spice detail on the finish tho not nearly as complex or aggressive as the excellent 2016 effort. Total newb that could use a mandatory 5-7 to reconcile...issues. 10.22.24. — 8 months ago
