    Il Marroneto’s 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is immediately captivating, showing lift and verticality that sets it clearly apart, with bright cherry fruit, grenadine and grilled watermelon underscored by an energetic, punchy edge. There is an appealing sweetness to the aromatics alongside hints of white peppercorn and pressed violet, with lifted tones that flirt with volatility yet remain controlled, carried by remarkably soft and polymerized tannins. The 2021 is distinctly austere and complex, etched with mineral precision and built with multiple layers stacked one atop another, gaining depth rather than breadth. Before fermentation is complete, the cap is soft and malic acid is not yet developed, and the wine is racked with residual sugar (from six to 10 grams per liter). The skins are pressed at 350 atmospheres in a vertical press, and the free-run juice is combined with the must to complete fermentation very slowly, over many months, bubbling happily along. It ages in oak botti for 42 months. This is a release of 22,000 bottles.

  • Vinous, November 2025, Score: 97

    The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino wafts up with an exotic blend of crushed sour cherries and dried violets complemented by cedar spice box and nuances of incense. It is seamless and silken in feel, displaying notable weight while also coming across as graceful and refined, with a remarkably pretty blend of wild strawberries and a crunch of minerality. A raspberry sauce concentration and sour citrus twang remain as edgy tannins linger, offset by a bump of riveting acidity. This is a fantastic vintage for Il Marroneto's Brunello, here taking on a level of complexity and concentration I usually associate with the Madonna delle Grazie.

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.
