Cantina Di Montalcino

Tenuta Greppo (Biondi-Santi)

Riserva Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013

This sample was given to me. Tannins are resolved to the point of almost nonexistent. A fair amount of acid with what little fruit was dark and baked. Cherries leather and tobacco leaf. Darn yummy but I wish I had some food with it. — 2 days ago

2020. Nose was very closed in but the flavors opened up after several minutes in the glass with nice red fruit. — a month ago

Argiano

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2020

2020 vintage. Decanted and tasted after 15 mins and 2 hours. Medium/medium-heavy body (as usual) first sampling. Meaty (but not beefy) with dark plum as backup/the club bouncer. Slightly chunky but eminently drinkable. Ff two hours and the body thinned out slightly with the club bouncer’s shift over. Dark plum gonzo and cola + Luxardo cherry now driving the party bus. Not quite as structured as the massive 2019 or as precious as the 2018. This is in a great spot now, if you must, and should be an absolute delight in 5-10 years. 3.6.25. — 20 days ago

The nose shows classic BdM aromas of dried cherry, rose petal, steeped black tea, tobacco, and a whisper of balsamic. Yet on the palate its tart acidity overwhelmed, and the nimble structure is more inline with CC than a BdM.

Not bad, but I certainly expected much more.

I would have had the same expectation for the producer and year.

@Tom Casagrande exactly! Hope this is just a bottle variation. Have 1 bottle left.

Marchesi Antinori

Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2021

2021 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. Trademark voluptuousness/ blanket swaddling there in the early/mid going. Fell off on the finish with a bit of lingering tartness. Loved the 2016 and 2017. This is that but it ain't (all) that if you know what I mean. 3.25.26. — a day ago
