Montevertine

Le Pergole Torte Sangiovese 2006

Medium ruby , quite wide but healthy rim. Lovely dried red fruits , cranberry , raspberry , touches of dried herbs . Quite mineral and serious also after a while . On the palate , more red fruits, touch of black tea , dried Provençal herbs , really vibrant acidity , quite ripe but fine and noticeable tannins . Very good length with a refreshing vibrant finish . This is drinking well now , especially with time in the glass , will probably still improve over the next 5 or so years and hold for a further 5-10. — 10 days ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2006

Whoa, just peaking right now, still inky, gobs of fruit, all manner of cherry, mulberry, cranberry, brambly, leathery, a cough syrup medicinal quality… very aromatic, and the palate was really grippy, very sturdy tannins - early season cherries & spice flavors, earthy, even a minerality, just tongue saturating w/long persistent finish. Enjoyed w/roast leg of lamb — 20 days ago

Tenuta Greppo (Biondi-Santi)

Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 1925

pretty lucid cherry see through and delicate. Hints of salinity and garrigue. Pure and simple. Very nice. Apparently only the third ever vintage of brunello! If so, an amazing glimpse of history. Jef ROPP — 24 days ago

Castelgiocondo Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2016

fabulous brunello. From nose to entry to finish, just fabulous all around. Drinking well now, but can't wait to see them age. Have another few in the cellar. Silky smooth. — 6 days ago

Tenuta Il Poggione

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013

So balanced and complex. Nose shows tobacco leaf, moist loamy gravel, macerated ripe cherry, incense. Concentrated and mouthfilling, but it’s very soft and showing lots of secondary and some tertiary flavors. Such richness. Wow. Thanks to my brother for popping this! — 22 days ago
