  • Goedhuis, March 2018

    Sweet/savoury Sangiovese fruit with the nutmeg spice of toasty oak, grippy tannins and smooth, rich body of Brunello. 2012 shows wonderful concentration and length. The Il Colle wines always show an early appeal on release, but have the structure and stature for impressive ageing.

Producer

Il Colle

Located in the cool north east of Montalcino, the tiny 7 hectare Il Colle estate is run by owner and winemaker Caterina Carli. She crafts some truly outstanding Brunello from her newly completed winery which sits just below the town of Montalcino.

Region

Montalcino

Located southwest of Chianti, Montalcino came into its own in the late 1880s when local producer,Biondi-Santi, discovered a Sangiovese clone in his vineyard that was darker in colour than the rest. Its colour, however, was not its only attribute. It produced a wine with notable body, structure and length. He named it ‘brunello' meaning little dark one. This grape's genetic properties along with Montalcino's relatively temperate climate combine to create a wine stylistically different to that of more northerly Chianti. They are usually released approximately 5 years after the vintage following 2 to 4 years ageing in wood. The denomination of Riserva indicates a wine usually produced with more concentrated grapes than the traditional cuvéeand requires a minimum of one additional year of ageing.Today, Montalcino has become one of the most sought after appellations in the Tuscan region.
