White Blend from Gaiole UGA, Chianti Classico
Production of this wine is a painstaking labor of love. If they made a white out of the grapes it would return 10 times the volume! Makes the price look pretty reasonable.The organic San Giusto a Rentennano 2016 Vin San Giusto (in a 375-milliliter bottle) is a viscous and glycerin-rich dessert wine with dried fruit, chewy caramel, white raisin and a hint of chocolate or toasted coffee bean. The wine is very rich on the palate, sitting heavy on the senses to the end. I also get a curious
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
Winemaker Francesco Mulinari makes stunning wines year in year out, and his L’Aietta 2021 Brunello entices with its beautiful fragrance of violet, ripe dark-skinned berry, new leather, eucalyptus and fine tobacco blend. Brimming with finesse, the palate offers ripe wild cherry, crushed raspberry, star anise and spiced orange peel. Taut, fine-grained tannins provide support while bright acidity keeps it vibrant and balanced. Kerrin O’Keefe, 97 PointsIn two neighbouring rudimentar
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
John and Zoë have crafted a Rosso that is fresh, juicy, and immediately delightful, just the way we like them. The serious caliber of the terroir shines through in this structured, yet friendly bottle of Sangiovese. Given the tiny production of this vintage, Benda bottled only a single wine, blending their precious Brunello fruit into this spectacular Rosso.
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
A selection of 100% Sangiovese, grown in the oldest vineyards surrounding the estate (400 m MSL), is used exclusively in exceptional vintages to create Riserva Pian di Conte.The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pian di Conte is intense, with a burst of split pine, cedar shavings, dried flowers and mentholated herbs forming its smoky bouquet. This envelops the palate with silky textures and ripe wild berry fruits, taking on a flinty-mineral concentration that adds lovely depth toward
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
The sister to the Uccelliera brother, same winery, same maker, different fruit, and personality! Many who have tasted both the Uccelliera and Voliero Brunello over a number of years remark that they prefer the Uccelliera in the cooler years, and the Voliero in the bolder years. 2016 has somehow managed to make the choice a little harder.Give this just a little time to acclimatise to the world outside the bottle and you'll be greeted with welcoming arms. Voliero's 2016 Brunello has wonderful
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
A Brunello in all but name ... and, a bloody good one at that! The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino is wonderfully perfumed, casting a blend of roses, violets and crushed blackberries. A stone dust hint adds lovely complexity. This is elegant in style and remarkably pure, showing depths of cherry-berry fruit guided by a wave of vibrant acidity. The 2022 leaves a salty, mineral flourish while tapering off long and gently tannic. Crisp in feel, with resonating blue and purple inner florals. This is alread
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
A Brunello in all but name ... and, a bloody good one at that! Cerbaiona’s 2023 Rosso di Montalcino opens with bright forest berry fruit, pressed violet and a pretty spiciness that defines the vintage. The palate is vibrant and finely textured, balancing floral lift with fresh red and dark berry tones and a subtle savory edge. Aged for one year in oak with a portion of new wood before finishing its maturation in cement for improved integration, the wine shows harmony and clarity while preservi
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
The Le Chiuse 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is a lovely wine and one of my favorites from a vintage that is not always easy to read. It delivers its message clearly with dark fruit, blue flower, grilled herb and sweet cedar, showing a sense of fullness and aromatic completeness that is not always present in this year. Soft and silky on the palate, the wine offers gentle, powdery tannins supported by good underlying structure, achieving balance without force. Sourced as a special selection from eig
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
Super impressive, layered, bright, brooding, epic intrigue, incredible complexity. It has that 5th dimension, harmony seamless, together, wonderful personality. Exceptional, ripe, nutty, layered tannins. Fresh, vibrant fruit. Restraint subtlety. Great tension that will clearly hold it in good stead as it ages. A grape first delight that gives you an inner glow.Paul Kaan, Wine Decoded July 2026Baricci consistently makes wines that reflect the identity of this special Tuscan territory.
Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany
Brooding yet intense, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino bursts from the glass with a wave of autumnal spices, crushed cherries, cedar shavings and steeped plums lifted by pine hints. This is deeply textural, elegant and refined, with a dense wave of ripe wild berry fruits, all guided by vibrant acidity, offset by oranges and balsam herbs. It finishes grippy and extended with a black hole of tension and a sweet and sour sensation that lingers on and on as crunchy tannins resonate throughout. The 20
Sangiovese from Greve UGA, Chianti Classico
The 2018 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is quite possibly the most elegant, refined version of this wine I have ever tasted. It does not offer the immediacy or impact of either the 2015 or 2016, but, instead, impresses with its elegance, persistence and total class. Bright floral and spice notes add perfume to a core of red-toned fruit. The 2018 represents another move towards greater finesse at Fontodi. It spent a year in French oak barrel and a second year in cask.Antonio
Sangiovese from Barberino Val d'Elsa, Chianti Classico
Isole e Olena's top wine. Always a pleasure. Year after year they seem to be drawing even more delicious expressions of Sangiovese from this special parcel of fruit! 'Cepparello' is named after the valley where the vineyard is planted. The last bottle I had of this was a 2006 a month ago, thanks Chris. It was superb, great harmony poise and balance. A real generosity to the wine. Beautiful secondary characters. Looking forward to trying the 2019."One of the icon wines of Tuscany, the Iso
