Details
The 2019 Cerbaia Brunello di Montalcino presents a deep garnet color that catches the light, hinting at its vibrancy. On the nose, it is earthy and savory, offering layers of dried roses, cedar spice box, and a touch of bright orange zest that lifts the aromas. As it opens, ripe red cherries and subtle blue fruits emerge, adding a refreshing dimension. The palate is silky and pure, with a well-measured inner sweetness that balances the wine’s natural energy. Fine-grained tannins provide structure without overwhelming, while a vibrant acidity enlivens the fruit. The finish is long and resonant, with a hint of tart cranberry adding a final, cheek-puckering note. Elegant and energetic, this Brunello showcases the distinctive terroir of Montosoli with finesse.
Antonio Galloni - 92 Points
"The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is earthy and savory in the best possible way with an almost rustic, yet not quite, blend of old cedar spice box and dried roses elevated by orange zest and bright cherries. This is wonderfully pure and silky, with a measured inner sweetness and masses of ripe red and blue fruits that swirl throughout. Juicy acidity maintains a lovely energy as the 2019 finishes long and staining. Fine-grained tannins saturate, and a resonance of tart cranberry puckers the cheeks. This energetic and sleek Brunello from Cerbaia will require minimal cellaring to show its best."
