  • James Suckling, September 2023, Score: 92

    This is ripe but fresh with cherries, currants, dark spices, walnuts and bark on the nose, following through to a medium body with steady acidity and firm, fine-grained tannins, that are crunchy and chalky. Vivid and attractive.

  • Vinous, November 2023, Score: 93

    The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is youthfully restrained, forcing the taster to work for its aromatic blend of crushed ashen stones, wild herbs and smoke. This slowly evolves with further time in the glass, blowing off its earthy persona to reveal a core of red currants and dusty rose. It washes across the palate with silken textures, soft and pillowy, with depths of dark red fruit and mineral tones guided by vibrant acidity. This leaves a coating of fine tannins lingering, closing down hard through the finish with orange and clove hints. The 2020 needs cellaring to show its best, as it holds its power in reserve today.

Perched high above the vineyards encircling Castelnuovo dell'Abate lies the Montalcino estate ofPoggio di Sotto. An idyllic Mediterranean paradise surrounded by rosemary, lavender andsunbathing lizards, the estate is composed of 35 hectares in total, 12 of which are planted with the finest Brunello (Sangiovese) clones.Visiting the charming, philosophical and enthusiastic owner, Piero Palmucci, is like engaging inconversation with Pablo Neruda. With a twinkle in his eye, a mischievous smile and unparalleledcalmness, he speaks passionately and eloquently about his wines and his insights.Like many great estates, his individuality is reflected in his thought-provoking wines. Burgundianin style, Palmucci's creations are beautiful expressions of Brunello di Montalcino - perfumed,luxuriously silky, refined and complex - which linger copiously on the palate. If his wines couldcompose, they would be Debussy.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.
