Fruity and elegant with a wonderful transparency on the nose with notes of cherries, strawberries, flowers and minerals, which also play around the silky texture on the palate. Shows excellent balance and complexity. There is no lack of structure, taut and polished with ultra-fine tannins and an intense and concentrated finish, it makes its way to glory not without an interesting spiciness. SUPERIORE.DE

"It is an appealing blend of fruits, spices and earth. Tamarind, cocoa and juniper intertwine with cherry and blackberry. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and lively, with the sour cherry taking centre stage. Citrus peel emphasises a pleasant astringency. The polished tannins give the wine a firm grip and the acidity has an assertive bite. There is a hint of truffle on the finish." Decanter

"Hints of vanilla and toasty oak frame the cherry and berry flavors in this suave red. More about finesse than power despite a solid layer of dusty tannins, with iron and tobacco accents lingering on the finish." Wine Spectator

"The Brunello di Montalcino Dei Comunali 2019 offers a 360-degree view of Sangiovese with spicy forest fruits, star anise, white pepper and liquorice. The oak flavours are more prominent given the baritone personality of this wine. It offers a solid finish with notes of toasted coconut or macadamia nut over a spicy, medium-bodied final. It unfolds with beautiful balance." Wine Advocate

"Really nice fruit with pure berries and cherries with flowers. It's medium bodied with medium round tannins and a juicy finish. The whole thing has a citrusy undertone and fresh, lingering acidity. Give it two or three years to develop." James Suckling
