Hand-harvested grapes from the balanced 2019 vintage—marked by warm days and cool nights yielding concentrated yet fresh fruit—undergo fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, followed by 36 months' aging in large Slavonian oak casks to enhance complexity without overt wood influence. Pioneers of single-vineyard Brunello since 1975 and committed to sustainable practices, this production yields a deep ruby wine with garnet edges and profound vibrancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e An elegant, mineral-infused red with vibrant dark fruit and refined spice, reflecting Montosoli's limestone terroir. The nose reveals blackcurrant, cherry liqueur, pressed flowers, and hints of graphite and balsamic herbs. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet poised, with plush tannins, harmonious acidity, and flavors of ripe plum, star anise, and crushed slate, leading to a long, velvety finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards and Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Perfumed and beautiful with raspberry and cherry aromas and flavors. Purity like a mountain stream. Medium to full body with ultra-refined tannins that are so polished and beautiful. Goes on for minutes. Lovely and real. Drinkable but better in two or three years.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e \"From a beautiful site that must be seen to be believed, the Altesino 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli is redolent with dark fruit, blackcurrant and crushed slate. The mineral element of Montosoli and its schistic galestro-rich soils comes through beautifully in this vintage to add a linear sense of immediacy and verticality to the bouquet. The mouthfeel is especially elegant, and the wine's acidity is delivered expertly to showcase freshness but more importantly to highlight the quality of the fruit. The effect is very tonic and bright, and you get hints of baked brioche or oven-baked Italian focaccia bread, thanks to careful aging in Slavonian oak. This is a 12,000-bottle release.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing and Cellaring\u003c\/strong\u003e Serve at 16-18°C with 60 minutes of decanting to unfold aromas.
