Gardini Notes (99+ )- "Elegant with excellent sensory class, it displays notes of mixed red flowers, chopped citron, jasmine, acacia blossoms, lemon peel, crushed celery, and cola. Mixed mandarins and chocolate enliven the secondary notes. Full body, dense and firm tannins envelop the mid-palate, and a finish of great progression and harmony."
James Suckling (96)- "Aromas of violets, lavender, licorice, nutmeg and potpourri. Full-bodied with layers of fine tannins that are crunchy and silky, showing freshness and bright fruit at the end. Caressing texture. An excellent example of the vintage. Needs time to come together, but is very pretty and satisfying."
Jeb Dunnuck (94)- "With no Riserva produced in 2021, the 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino pours a youthful, saturated red hue and has a spiced, savory profile. The nose reveals dried cherries, fresh leather, lavender, sage, and Mediterranean herbs. Medium to full-bodied, it has a weightless feel on the palate, with ripe tannins, refreshing acidity, and a long finish that carries a subtle savory richness. Drink this beautiful Brunello over the coming 12-15 years. Drink 2026-2040."
