Overdådig Brunello di Montalcino i den legendariske årgang 2016. Tildelt de sjældne 100 point af James Suckling!
Hos Tenuta Valdicava vægter man i langt højere grad kvalitet fremfor kvantitet. Husets årlige produktion er meget lille, til gengæld er kvaliteten i deres vine i den absolutte top. Her er der tale om en udsøgt Brunello di Montalcino fra den fantastiske årgang 2016, og druerne kommer tilmed fra områdets mest berømte mark, nemlig Montisoli.
Og for at højne kvaliteten yderligere har Valdicava tilmed besluttet kun at udgive vine fra Montisoli-marken på magnumflasker!
Vinens kvalitets bevidnes blandt andet af, at den har scoret de tæt på uopnåelige 100 point James Suckling. Her får man en af de absolut største vine fra Brunello di Montalcino.

Tasted from magnum (one of just 1,500 made), this is a new wine from Valdicava that is presented in quite the statement bottle with stunning artwork that depicts an allegory to a saint. With fruit from one of the most celebrated crus in the appellation, the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli needs quite a bit of extra time to open. I followed my sample's evolution over a 24-hour period to get a better look inside. This wine requires extra patience. On my first tasting, I found that the fruit struggled to come through, and I recorded notes of white pepper, savory herb, campfire ash and crushed stone. Blue flowers like dried lilac and lavender also appear. When I came back to the bottle a day later, I found that the bouquet had gained in detail, sharpness and increasingly articulate specifics. But it took its time. To the palate, the wine is dense and firm, and I have no doubt as to its long-term aging potential. It is an honor to be one of the first people to taste this ambitious new release from the Montosoli vineyard made by Vincenzo Abbruzzese and his family.

Wow. The aromas of black cherries, plums, walnuts, lavender and cedar are really beautiful. Full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins and beautiful polish to the power and intensity. Gorgeous, sweet and ripe fruit at the end with peach and citrus character to the plums. Sophisticated and glorious. Drink after 2025.
