| Review: |
"The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino dazzles with a display of sour cherries, sage and clove with hints of cedar, licorice and flowery undergrowth. The balance here is spot-on, as silky textures give way to ripe red berries offset by tactile minerals, sour citrus and brisk acids which add lift and cooling freshness. Its tannins mount steadily toward the close in a classically dry and structured expression under an air of inner florals. What a beautifully pure expression of Sangiovese." |

"Mid ruby. Lots of concentration and complexity. Racy acidity embedded in a layer of ripe fruit. Gorgeous interplay of energetic, concentrated fruit and bags of grainy tannins. Lots of depth while maintaining a medium-bodied weight throughout." 18/20 Points Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com
