From Baricci in Italy's Montalcino, the Brunello di Montalcino 2018 is a refined 100% Sangiovese sourced from select parcels on the iconic Montosoli hillside, featuring calcareous-clay soils at 350 meters elevation that impart exceptional elegance and vibrancy. Hand-harvested grapes from the balanced 2018 vintage—marked by warm days and cool nights yielding concentrated yet fresh fruit—undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by 36 months' aging in large Slavonian oak casks to enhance complexity without overt wood influence. Committed to traditional sustainable practices since the 1960s, this production yields a deep ruby wine with garnet edges and profound intensity.

Tasting Notes An elegant, mineral-infused red with vibrant dark fruit and refined spice, reflecting Montalcino's calcareous terroir. The nose reveals black cherry, wild strawberry, licorice, and hints of graphite, sage, and balsamic herbs. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet poised, with plush tannins, harmonious acidity, and flavors of ripe plum, autumnal spices, and crushed slate, leading to a long, velvety finish.

Awards and Accolades The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino earned 94 points from JebDunnuck.com for its supple ripeness and lovely concentration, and 94 points from Wine Advocate for its classic freshness and bright fruit.

Serving and Cellaring Serve at 16-18°C with 60 minutes of decanting to unfold aromas. Ideal with roasted game, truffle pasta, or aged cheeses. Enjoy now through 2040, developing greater leather and earthy depth over time.
