VINOUS: 92 POINTS - Dusty florals, musky cherry and raspberry with hints of mentholated herbs waft up from the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino. This is enveloping and soft, with sweet exotic spices and juicy, vibrant acidity giving way to tart wild berries and rosy inner florals. There’s amazing length, hard red candies and violets, and sweet tannin that goes on and on, creating a somewhat chewy yet also fresh expression. The 2017 benefits from all of the fruit that would usually go into the single-vineyard Cerretalto Brunello, though even with it, production is down by 35%. That said, this is stunning juice. While Casanova Di Neri’s Cerretalto brings the power and mineral intensity, and Tenuta Nuova brings the elegance and balanced opulence, it’s the Brunello di Montalcino (often referred to as the “White Label”), with its classic lines and vivid fruit profile, that is the overachiever. This is only possible through an intricate understanding of terroir and how to blend it to perfection. In the end, whether you consider their more modern leanings a blessing or a curse, this family is making some of the best wine in Montalcino. -Eric Guido
