Canalicchio Di Sopra, Brunello Di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli, 2020
🏰 【A radiant and generous Brunello from the highly sought-after Vigna Montosoli vineyard, showcasing remarkable balance and aging potential】. The 2020 Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli comes from the hottest vineyard site in Montalcino, with only 4,133 bottles produced in this vintage. It displays a bright red/orange-tinged color. The nose is darkly floral, blending dried rose and violet with hints of sour cherry, blackberry, Tuscan dust, pomegranate, raspberries, tangerine, dusty earth, and dried herbs. It's silky-smooth and round, with fresh acidity and vibrant wild berry fruits. Tactile mineral tones add traction to a long, staining finish with fine-grained tannins. Expect hints of Turkish coffee, sweet earth, petrichor, iron ore, and black olive.
🍴 An excellent match for beef, lamb, poultry, and game (deer, venison).
🥂 Delicious now, but should age gracefully over the next two decades, with some suggesting it's better after 2027. It will certainly improve with time and needs a few hours of air.
