Camigliano is an incredible property with a beautiful castle perched on a hill with commanding views of the entire southern half of the Montalcino appellation. It enjoys a special quality of light and lots of open panoramic spaces. The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is redolent of cherry cola, and the wine has an especially herbal or menthol note that is a bit monotone in this dry and hot growing season. It registers 15% alcohol and stemmy tannins. This is a punchy, unusual and somewhat quirky Brunello (with 170,000 bottles released).

This red is hallmarked by a bright beam of cherry, strawberry, floral, earth and menthol flavors, with an elegant profile giving way to dense tannins as this winds down on the finish. Fine balance. Best from 2025 through 2040. 14,000 cases made, 3,250 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
