As in every vintage, Pelagrilli 2020 is a pure and focused Brunello with cherry, strawberry and redcurrant fruit accompanied by mineral and tobacco accents. Lively and harmonious, it is all about the fruit, with a well-integrated structure and a great length on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with a dark centre. Smells of mint, blackberry jelly, violets, eucalyptus and precious wood. Rich and round on the palate, polished, with an almost creamy texture, international style, well made, with plenty of vigour!" Falstaff

"Superb bouquet with notes of black cherries, Mediterranean herbs and raspberries; polished texture with supple tannins, supportive acidity, multi-faceted finish." Vinum

"The 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Pelagrilli shows a particularly powerful bouquet and rich concentration and is a great expression of Sangiovese, but the wine is also balanced. The intensity is emphasised by aromas of baked fruit, roasted spices, sweet herbs and grilled rosemary, with a hint of redwood and cedar or barbecue smoke. On the palate, the wine is very round and full-bodied. It covers every corner of the mouth. It is a full-bodied wine with powdery, young tannins and a velvety finish. It is matured in French barriques, which has always been the favoured style of this winery." Wine Advocate

"Plum sauce and sage combine with crushed black cherries and balsamic spice to create a dark, seductive bouquet when the 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Pelagrilli comes to life in the glass. It feels silky, with a cool acidity and racy wild berries that flow across the palate with ease. Incredibly long and expertly balanced, the 2020 leaves hints of black raspberry and sour cherry stones over a layer of sweet tannins. Patience will be required, but will also be rewarded." Vinous

"A protocol aimed at preserving the taste freshness, a Brunello of incisive juiciness and tension. Wild plum, hints of wild mint and gardenia on the nose. In the mouth, balsamic density and appeal, with fruity and floral memories." Luca Gardini
