Tasting Notes:

98 points Wine Spectator

Offers forthcoming aromas and flavors of blackberry, black currant, licorice, tobacco and vanilla backed by vivid acidity and dusty tannins. This has enough fruit and structure to absorb the oakiness over time, is balanced overall and is poised for a promising future. Best from 2026

96 points Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a terrific wine: bold, well-defined, powerful and balanced. The bouquet shows black cherry, cassis, earth, leather and dried roses. The palate offers soft fruit flavors supported by firm oak tannins. Coming back to the bottle 24 hours later, I found impressive integration and smoothness that took away from that alcohol heat.
