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 review)

"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)
