Talenti, Brunello di Montalcino 2018

Talenti

Case Format: 6x75cl

A selection of 100% sangiovese grapes grown in estate-owned vineyards located on the south-easterly and south-westerly slopes of Montalcino, at an altitude from 250 to 400 m MSL. The soils are made up of sandy loam, with clay and Galestro marl. The wine ages in 500-litre French oak tonneaux and 15/25-Hl Slavonian oak barrels for at least 24 months, followed by a period of ageing in bottle. The wine has a deep ruby red colour with garnet highlights, and an ample, slightly spicy bouquet. It is full, intense, smooth and velvety on the palate, with sweet, elegant tannins.

Ruby red and intense colour with orange shimmers. A wide bouquet slightly spicy. His taste is full, soft, velvety and intense. The tannins are elegant and sweet.

Monica Larner

I encountered some crumbly or dried-out corks on my two samples of this wine. The Talenti 2018 Brunello di Montalcino (with the black label) is fine and elegant with perfumed notes of dried fruit, blue flower, earth and balsam herb. The balance of the wine is very nice, and youll appreciate the delicate tannic structure and the lean to medium-bodied texture. Some 25,000 bottles were released. Fruit is selected from across eight hectares of vines on rocky, galestro soils.

Caramelised and sour cherries, aniseed, gunsmoke, candy floss, liquorice and toasted sweet strawberry tarts on the nose. Ripe and forward on the palate, structured and coursing with energy and life. High acidity is apparent from the first sip with tannins that are firm but almost melt into the sides of the mouth giving a wide frame. Tense, layered, persistent. Bold, almost too much giving a slight constriction to the finish with clear heft. New to the Place de Bordeaux this year. Director Riccardo Talenti.
