    Generous Brunello made from grapes from different vineyards in various sub-zones in Montalcino with the classic aura of its vintage. The aromatically intense bouquet opens with a scent of violets and then develops flavours of wild berries, vanilla, tobacco and chocolate. The flavour is characterised by a good balance between a full, juicy body, soft tannins and well-integrated alcohol. SUPERIORE.DE

    "An immediately engaging nose offers preserved red cherry, plum, cinnamon and carob. Hints of Mediterranean forest weave through the wine. The palate shows a sunny, luscious ripeness, but is well integrated by the sandy tannins on the finish." Decanter

    "The Brunello di Montalcino 2020 seduces the taster with a marvellous bouquet of fresh strawberries and plums, underlined by sweet herbs and a hint of exotic spices. The wine is soft, round and quite airy in flavour, with vibrant pure red berry fruit underlined by a core of lively acidity. The energy remains high throughout, leaving a hint of steely minerality and sweet tannins that frame the experience nicely." Vinous

    "This is supple and juicy, bursting with cherry, strawberry, mineral and wild herb flavors. Vibrant and backed by dense, refined tannins that leave a firm grip on the lingering aftertaste." Wine Spectator

    "Whipped strawberry, liquorice root and eucalyptus on the nose, closed on notes of white pepper. Balsamic mouthfeel, with a reminder of red fruits." Luca Gardini

    "Very pretty and floral with raspberries and black cherries on the nose, as well as violet undertones. Medium-bodied with chewy tannins that are nevertheless integrated and polished. Long, intense finish. Very well made for the vintage." James Suckling

    "The Altesino 2020 Brunello di Montalcino opens with earthy tones and shows the character of the house, which is easy to recognise. This elegant wine offers a polished and smooth mouthfeel with finely balanced tannins. The oak is also skilfully used to reveal a light spiciness that is deeply integrated into a silky mouthfeel." Wine Advocate
