2012 Canalicchio di Sopra, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva MAGNUM

Die Riserva Brunello di Montalcino von Canalicchio di Sopra wird nur für große Jahrgänge und in begrenzten Mengen aus den ältesten Weinbergen des Weinguts erzeugt und ist das Aushängeschild für die Qualität des Weinguts. Eleganz, Terroir und aromatische Tiefe prägen die Riserva. Mindestens 80% der Trauben stammen aus einem einzigen Weinberg: Vigna Vecchia Mercatale. 95/100, RobertParker.com Reviewed by: Monica Larner, Reviewed by: Monica Larner, Release Price: $140, Drink Date: 2020 – 2035 The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a beautifully saturated expression, with gorgeous density and presence. The bouquet is carefully considered in terms of its power and intensity (remember, this was a hot and dry vintage, and ripening was accelerated as a result). It shows lots of varietal character and definition without ever going overboard or feeling too soft or ripe. In fact, this Riserva is surprisingly tonic and firm deep down. It sweeps over the palate with sweet, plush and softly velvety waves of fruity flavors. Published: Feb 28, 2018
