SIRO PACENTI

Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne 2017

- 95 points -

One of the most rightly celebrated bottles of the appellation, also in this well-balanced and decidedly worthwhile vintage. Notes of black currant and nuances of eucalyptus, then nutmeg and floral touches of carnation. Mouth with sapid tannins, fruity return and nice persistence.

Luca Gardini, October 2021
