SIRO PACENTI
Brunello di Montalcino Pelagrilli 2020
- 96 points -
From 24-year-old vines, the 2020 Brunello Di Montalcino Pelagrilli pours a saturated red hue and is a luxuriously expressive, detailed wine with notes of polished leather, fresh red plum, sweet tobacco, potpourri, and currants. The palate is full yet compact and offers refreshing, energetic acidity, refined tannins, and a long-lasting finish with mouthwatering saltiness. An elegant red, it’s less structured in the range and more approachable.
