Description

91 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): “The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino opens to a ripe and dark quality of fruit. These tones underline the slightly warmer growing conditions present on the southern side of the appellation where Col d’Orcia is located. That extra warmth is an important factor especially in a cool and soggy vintage such as 2014. This wine appears to have suffered less compared to its peers. The bouquet is layered with rich aromas of cured meat, spicy tobacco and moist potting soil that add to the weight and gravitas of the wine. This Brunello is compact and mid-weight in terms of texture. Drink: 2020-2030. (Jan 2019)”

91 points Wine Spectator: “[$55 list] Immediate gratification is the hallmark of this red, featuring enticing juicy strawberry, cherry, currant and rose flavors. Linear and elegant, with a spine of prickly tannins, but this feels balanced in the end. Drink now through 2032. (6/15/19)”

91 points James Suckling: “Aromas of plums, flower and hints of asphalt follow through to a medium body, juicy and savory fruit and a flavorful finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. (11/7/19)”

90 points Wine & Spirits: “[$60 list] Brisk acidity brings clarity to this wine’s black-cherry flavors and picks up notes of cranberry and orange blossom. That brightness is offset by notes of tobacco and damp leaves; raspy tannins pull the flavors together. (Apr 2020)”
