  • Goedhuis Waddesdon, February 2026, Score: 95

    With its sweet red cherry, raspberry and strawberry aromas that integrate with dark spice and lavender this gorgeous 2021 will delight from the off. Rich, velvety and powerful, the fine tannins frame this wine superbly and will allow it to age for 10 years.

  • Wine Advocate, January 2026, Score: 93

    The Sesti 2021 Brunello di Montalcino offers a soft, velvety fruit profile with ample richness and texture, revealing layers of black fruit, plum and earthy spice. Rather than emphasizing vertical lift and tension, the wine presents a more monolithic personality with an open-knit flow across the palate, while the tannins are fully integrated into this full-bodied expression.

  • Vinous, November 2025, Score: 94

    The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a cascade of sweet violet and lavender tones before settling on dried roses and cherries. It is elegant and nearly weighty in feel, with tantalizing acidity to balance and cool-toned red berry fruits swirling throughout. The 2021 turns inward on itself through the finish, long and pleasantly tart, as fine-grained tannin frames the experience beautifully.

  • Kerin O’Keefe, November 2025, Score: 95

    Underbrush, new leather, dark spice and lavender aromas come to the forefront on the fragrant Sesti 2021 Brunello. Full-bodied and delicious, this is already almost accessible, offering layers of flavors including ripe red cherry, wild raspberry, star anise and cake spice alongside close-grained but well-integrated tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it lifted. Drink 2028-2038. Abv: 14.5%

Castello di Argiano Sesti, owned by father and daughter team Giuseppe and Elisa, is located in Montalcino and their vineyards are grown on the southern slopes of Montalcino (home of some of the greatest Brunello). Giuseppe (‘Giugi’) Sesti, studied fresco painting for 8 years before turning to ancient astronomy and lunisolar calendars. In 1975, he moved to Montalcino to find a quieter life and to explore his other interests including opera. He planted his own vines in 1991 after years of helping neighbouring winemakers with their harvests and wines. Today, he is considered as one of the leading winemakers of the region – a tremendous feat in such a short span of time. Giuseppe and Elisa follow organic and biodynamic approaches both in the vineyards and in the cellar. Fleshy and immediately appealing, his wines might be mistaken for top Right Bank Bordeaux – which is probably not such a bad thing.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.
