    Lisini produces four Brunelli. Each one stands for a different conviction – the Annata stands for balance and accessibility, the Ugolaia for the character of a single vineyard, the new Poggio Severo for a cooler, higher parcel. The Riserva stands for something else: for tradition. The estate itself calls it the most traditional wine in the entire portfolio – not because it is older, but because it epitomises the classic Montalcino ideal: Concentration, depth, patience. It is the result of a strict selection of the best grapes from the entire estate – from the vineyards around Sant'Angelo in Colle and the Sesta vineyard near Castelnuovo dell'Abate. No single vineyard, but the sum of the best that a vintage has to offer. The maceration period of 20 to 26 days is longer than for the Annata, and the ageing in large Slavonian oak barrels is correspondingly extended.

    2020 was a warm, concentrated vintage in Montalcino – ripe, dark fruit, pronounced wood character, wines of great density. The Riserva fully reflects this: Deep, intense garnet red colour. Black and purple fruit, oak spice, leather and undergrowth on the nose – powerful, dark and impressively still. Broad and concentrated on the palate, with rich tannins, a fresh acidity that keeps the weight in balance and a long, spicy-mineral final. Decanter counts this wine among the few of the 2020 Riserva generation that demand a lot of time – and reward it. Patience as a basic attitude. That is Lisini. SUPERIORE.DE
