| Description: | 96 Points | Jd âA ripe red color, the 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino is expressive of its place, with warming notes of licorice, black cherries, anise, cedar, and dark soil lifting from the glass. As it opens, it becomes purer in its fruit profile, shining through beautifully. Full-bodied, with ripe tannins and a savory slanting profile, notes of espresso and mocha float across the palate, filling it with purity of fruit and lovely concentration through its long finish. It's a fantastic Brunello with a warming richness that can stand up to hearty winter foods and will be best enjoyed over the next 15 years.â - Jeb Dunnuck 95 Points | V âBrooding and intense, the 2019 bursts from the glass with a wave of autumnal spices, crushed cherries, cedar shavings, steeped plums, lifted by pine hints. This is deeply textual, elegant and refined, with a dense wave of ripe wild berry fruits, all guided by vibrant acidity, offset by oranges and balsam herbs. It finishes grippy and extended with a black hole of tension, and a sweet and sour sensation that lingers on and on as crunchy tannins resonate throughout. The 2019 is youthfully backward today, yet there is a balance that can't be denied, especially as I watched it open up over 24 hours. This is a total pleasure to taste. Bury the 2019 deep in the cellar.â - Vinous |
