The purity and focus to this young Brunello is certainly impressive with crushed berries and flowers, as well as burnt orange peel on the nose. Full body. Firm and silky tannins with an intense backbone and focus. A seriously structured and balanced red. New wine from here. Drink after 2022.

VINI DA NON PERDERE -IT HAS REACHED THE MAXIMUM EVALUATION OF FOUR STARS FOR ITS PLEASURE, CORRESPONDENCE TO THE VARIETY AND BALANCE
4 stelle
Enticing flavors of black cherry, plum, iron, leather, earth and tobacco mark this red. Dense tannins and bright acidity lay down structural support. Tips toward the dry side in the balance despite the persistent finish. Best from 2023 through 2038. 216 cases made, 85 cases imported

This wine sees fruit from a two-hectare site (at 300 meters above sea level) with loamy sand soils. The Camigliano 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Paesaggio Inatteso will be released in March 2020, with a mere 2,600 bottles produced. This is a very special wine with a unique set of aromas. It shows pronounced Mediterranean accents of rosemary, lavender and dried basil leaf. The wine’s fruit profile is also front and center with wild berry and dried cassis. The mouthfeel is silky, lean and topped off by well integrated tannins. The finished wine ages in 20-hectoliter casks for 30 months.
