Expert Reviews
"Ripe aromas and flavors of plum, black cherry and black currant are shaded with iron, earth and eucalyptus notes in this savory red. There are assertive tannins that leave a solid grip on the finish, where the lasting impression is ripe fruit. Best from 2029 through 2045."
"The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino unfolds a darkly alluring bouquet of crushed raspberries, dried violets and nuances of ginger and sage. It is mineral-intense with an attractive stony character. A silken wave of ripe red and black berry fruits slowly saturates, and a licorice tinge emerges. Hulking tannins frame the finish without slowing its momentum as a twang of citrus adds lively form. This dark beast will require patience but will also reward it...Caprili’s 2020 Riserva is impressive. It’s one of a handful of Riservas from this vintage worthy of attention. The Caprili vineyards are located next to the Soldera family’s Case Basse property, and while their vineyard practices differ slightly, the terroir is remarkably similar. Owner/Winemaker Giacomo Bartolommei also serves as President of the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino, bringing a fresh perspective from a younger generation. I have high hopes for progressive change under his leadership."~Eric Guido
Pouring a youthful ruby red hue, the 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino opens with ripe notes of cherry liqueur, pressed roses, mossy earth, and sweet Mediterranean herbs. As it sits in the glass, a touch of saddle leather and more savory depth begins to emerge. Medium to full-bodied, it has ripe, well-defined tannins and a bright spine of acidity, with a lightly sanguine, iron-tinged finish. Drink this vibrant, classic effort over the coming decade or more. Drink 2026-2038."
