Gianni Brunelli - Brunello di Montalcino 2018

"Full of promise..."

"Seductive nose of rosemary, wild cherries, lemon peel, chocolate strawberries and praline. Medium-bodied, with a lively, fruity palate framed by fine-grained tannins. Everything is in balance. Drink from 2023. (James Suckling 2022)

Gianni Brunelli - Brunello Rosso di Montalcino 2021

"A sumptuous texture

"Cedar and pine give way to dusty rose and dried black cherry, as the dark-looking Rosso di Montalcino 2021 blossoms in the glass. Its sumptuous textures and ripe red fruits display Montalcino's southern terroir, while lively acidity and mineral tones maintain a beautiful balance. The 2021 finishes with a light but energetic structure, enlivened by a lingering note of spicy citrus. Short cellaring is recommended". (Vinous 2023) - To be enjoyed now or in a few years' time, with a duck breast in Port, for example...

Gianni Brunelli - Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2015

3/5 (1 reviews)

"Gianni Brunelli Le Chiuse di Sotto's 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is another gem from this goldsmith estate.[...] It shows charred aromas with spice and ripe fruit, and broad, big ambition. I got a touch of graham cracker and brown sugar, followed by spice and ripe fruit. This is a long, generous wine, with red fruit and texture on the long finish." (Wine Advocate 2020)

4.5/5 (2 reviews)

"Their latest, the charming 2015 Brunello di Montalcino, is one of the stars of the vintage. This wine exudes the warmth and pure exuberance of the veraison, which was magnificently warm and sunny. Yet it also remains true to Montalcino's promise of elegance, balance and longevity. [It's almost a mosaic of the appellation. (Wine Advocate 2020)
