    Alessandro Mori's Il Marroneto 2017 Brunello di Montalcino opens to a very distinguished and unique character that makes this wine easy to recognize in a lineup of Brunello. This hot and dry growing season made for more powerful aromas and sometimes riper flavors in the appellation, generally speaking. But this magically lean-bodied wine follows its own path, and the warmth of the summer seems to have cemented almost exotic aromas of bay leaf, crushed flower, campfire ash and iron ore. The wine is exceedingly silky and elegant, but instead of opulence, you get streamlined tension accompanied by lifted, immediate aromas of fruit, flowers and light spice. Drink 2024 - 2040. 95 points. Monica Larner, Wine Advocate

Owner and winemaker Alessandro Mori gave up a career in law to pursue his dream in 1994. He took over vineyards at an elevation of 400 metres on the north eastern side of Montalcino, with spectacular views across to Siena. The steep sided slopes are not the easiest to farm, but they are capable of producing exceptional fruit, and after 30 years Alessandro understands every nuance of his vineyards. He was mentored by the late Mario Cortevesio and Giulio Gambelli, both legends in winemaking circles, and he carries their legacy of traditional methods. Alessandro, now joined by his son Iacopo, is the type of winemaker who can conjure greatness from even so called “lesser” vintages such as 2017 and 2018. Focussing their energy on the vineyards, the Mori’s are traditionalists in the cellar, intervening minimally and focussing on elegant wines that display unparalleled levels of purity and a backbone of acidity, allowing them to age for many years while still displaying the estate’s hallmark energy. In essence, Alessandro and Iacopo are focused on producing wines with soul, and each year they succeed.Read less

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.
