'The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino wafts up with a pretty blend of dried strawberries and cedary spice o!set by lifting menthol and violet pastille aromas. This is juicy in character with herbal-tinged wild berry fruits and nervous acidity, all spiced up by a zesty touch of tangerine. The 2019 finishes fresh with a vivid red licorice tinge. Orange notes fade amongst subtly grippy tannins.' 90/100 Eric Guido (vinous.com)

'Finely crafted with rich, ripe fruit, hints of leather and tea leaf, and just enough vibrant acidity. While they tend to be ready on release, that is not to say they won't age well.' Kerin O'Keefe '(Brunello di Montalcino', UCP)
