Ciacci Piccolomini, Brunello di Montalcino
De Ciacci Piccolomini, Brunello di Montalcino heeft zachte, romige tannines. Compacte fruittonen (kersen, bramen) en een fijne vanilletoon markeren het bouquet. Het is een even krachtige als subtiele wijn die over een enorme hoeveelheid nuances beschikt.
De Brunello di Montalcino heeft een granaatrode kleur met zachte en elegante aroma’s van kersen en kruiden. Prachtige balans tussen kracht en elegantie. Finesse domineert. Complexe afdronk.
96 points Wine Spectator
Exuding cherry, strawberry, floral and tobacco aromas and flavors, this effusive, fruity style is bright and elegant, with terrific harmony and a long, mouthwatering finish that leaves a mineral impression. Very compelling.

Underbrush, tobacco, ripe berry and balsamic aromas abound in this delicious red. Smooth, full-bodied and savory, the succulent palate doles out Marasca cherry, raspberry compote, licorice and white pepper. It’s well balanced, with firm yet refined tannins and fresh acidity. Drink 2021-2033. *Editors’ Choice* (KO) (5/2018)

Bright red. The fresh, clean, perfumed nose hints at red cherry and blood orange. Then sweet and supple on the palate, but with a lively mouthfeel to the red fruit and underbrush flavors thanks to harmonious, vibrant acidity. Has much more midpalate flesh to support its acidity than some other less successful 2013 Brunellos, all of which are made in a similar high-acid style typical of the vintage. Finishes broad, savory and nicely persistent. This 2013 from Ciacci Piccolomini is made in a much cooler-climate style than is usual for this producer. (ID) (4/2018)
