  • Goedhuis, February 2020

    The 2015 Brunello CastelGiocondo displays gorgeous ripe textural qualities and a light creaminess from the use of French barrique. The ripe palate of rich red cherry and raspberry infused flavours is so attractive, yet everything is kept firmly in check by the streamlined tannins and an energetic freshness on the finish. This is a fine Brunello and one of the leading successes from this area of Montalcino which can be enjoyed from as soon as next year.

  • James Suckling, February 2020, Score: 97

    This is a pure and beautiful Brunello with super fine and abundant tannins that are comprehensive and expansive. Builds on the palate. Full body. Round and firm with beautiful fruit and length. Lively and vivid. From organically grown grapes. Needs a year or two to soften, but already gorgeous.

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.
