Aromas of black cherries, plums, and walnuts with undertones of cedar. The palate is dense and full-bodied, with rich tannins, and a complex finish.

100% sangiovese selected from Montalcino. The wine evolves in Slavonian and French oak vessels of various sizes for a minimum of 24 months followed by a further refinement in bottle for a minimum of 6 months.

The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is spellbinding. Youthfully coy, it features a minty freshness and wild herbal thrust, giving way to bright cherry-berry fruit complicated by hints of worn leather. This is energetic and spry, yet elegant to the core, with crisp wild berries and a cascade of sweet spice elevated by zesty acidity. Tannic and potent yet still fresh, the 2020 lingers with a resonance of tart cranberry and sour citrus that leaves the cheeks puckered and the palate thirsting for more. This is a wild vintage of Uccelliera's Brunello di Montalcino. It's structured for the long haul yet already such a pleasure to taste.

A compressed and fresh 2020 Brunello with red-cherry, plum and peach character. Medium body, fine tannins and a tangy finish. Give this two or three years to open and soften, but it's already crunchy and fresh. Delicious in fact. Best after 2026.
