Brunello Di Montalcino, 2019

Available Vintages
justerini & brooks tasting note

Fine, lifted and complex not more powerful than the regular 2019, but so high toned, mineral and finely pitched. An immensely long, stunning Brunello. All Mediterranean glow in the best possible way, with gorgeously sinewed tannins and a resonating, flowing finish – magical. Aged for just under four years in Slavonian oak cask and bottled at 13.5% ABV.

critic reviews

98+/100Monica Larner,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The Poggio di Sotto 2019 Brunello di Montalcino remains a little closed, even rigid, at the moment. It can be compared to the cool 2013 and 2016 vintages that both required an extra five or six years before they started to shine. However, there's no escaping the power that remains just under the surface. You feel it budding and yearning to break free. Dark fruit aromas fold into crushed stone, grilled rosemary and blue flower. It's fun to taste this wine next to the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva because you really see how much further this vintage will require in the cellar. Both wines remain tight and nervous at this point but are full of potential.
