The Story
The 2019 Valdicava Montosoli Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is known for its expressive aromas of cherry, raspberry, and iron, combined with earthy notes like tobacco and eucalyptus. It has a supple texture, refined structure, and a balance between elegance and power. The wine features a medium to full body, with ultra-fine tannins that linger, and is described as connecting to a unique piece of earth.
Vinous
Possibly immortal, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli evolves slowly in the glass, at first dark and dusty with dried violets, cedar and clove. Patience rewards the taster as complex hints of spiced oranges emerge, followed by suggestions of lavender, chalk dust and wild strawberries. This floods the palate with textures of pure silk, weighty yet energetic, with a dense wave of tart wild berry fruits underscored by salty mineral tones and licorice. A core of brisk acidity maintains harmony throughout as a bitter tinge of boysenberry and cocoa settles in, framed by youthfully gripping tannins. The 2019 Vigna Montosoli is an unbridled beast in need of taming. This is an epic wine in the making.
