Castello Tricerchi Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Description

Tricerchis Brunello is a blend of fruit from three different vineyards: Vigna del Velo, Vigna del Castello, and Vigna dei Cipressi, with a varying range of exposures. After picking in early October, fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts, mostly in steel; maceration is for a total of about 30 days on the skins; after pressing, the wine is aged in large neutral oak barrels for about 30 months.

93 Points – Vinous

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino displays a vibrant ruby hue, wafting up with an earthy blend of flowery undergrowth and crushed rocks before giving way to dried strawberries. It opens with a pleasant inner sweetness and creamy textures. Fresh acidity enlivens its red fruits and rosy inner florals. Violet and lavender florals linger through the long perfumed finale as a hint of fine tannins tug at the palate. What a darling.
