Expert Reviews
The La Gerla 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva gli Angeli shows warm-vintage characteristics with baked fruit and prune. Those mature fruit sensations feed nicely into the wine's medium-weight texture. The finish is not too long, and there is a dusty or brittle quality to the tannins that is commonly found in wines from the 2018 vintage. Only 3,775 bottles were made.
In the area of Canalicchio, Vigna Gli Angeli was planted in 1985. The Riserva is a selection of the best bunches from the highest stretch of the vineyard. This 2018 saw the wine’s typical long ageing in 50 hectolitre Slavonian oak casks. Evolved in aromas, it leads with preserved strawberry, vanilla-steeped prune and dried tobacco. The palate is fresher and brighter than the nose suggests, sporting red berries accented by sweet herbs. Bright in acidity, with a tightness of tannins to match. Nevertheless, this feels ready.
