Der Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli repräsentiert auf perfekte Weise die enorm mineralischen Galestro Böden der Lage Montosoli. Feinste schwarze und rote Frucht, Transparenz, Präzision und eine unbändige Mineralität zeichnen den Vigna Montosoli aus. Ein komplexes endloses Aromen-Feuerwerk mit feinster Struktur und mit gigantischem Alterrungspotenzial.

2018 Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli 100/100
Canalicchio di Sopra’s 2018 Vigna Montosoli, its debut single-vineyard bottling from this celebrated hill, is drop-dead gorgeous. Fragrant and all about elegance, it opens with enticing scents of wild rose, botanical herb, new leather and forest berry. Seamlessly fusing finesse and structure, the delicious palate delivers juicy Morello cherry, raspberry sprinkled with cinnamon, rosemary and thyme before a savory saline mineral finish. It boats great energy and impeccable balance, with taut, refined tannins and vibrant acidity. I just love it. Drink 2025–2038.

2018 Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino, Vigna Montosoli 96+/100
The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli is quite Burgundian in style, slowly awakening in the glass with a delicate mix of sweet herbs, crushed violet candies, hints of spiced orange and wild strawberries. It boasts a stunning purity of fruit and inner sweetness, seeming to hover across the palate, as red berries and saline-minerals slowly saturate under a purple-tinged air of inner florals. The 2018 leaves a grippy coating of fine tannins, yet balances them with a residual bump of zesty acidity, finishing long, lightly structured and with immaculate balance. This is the first official vintage of Vigna Montosoli, a wine that I've been following now for over two years, and each time it seems to only grow in both volume and depth.

Release Price: $179, Drink Date: 2025 - 2042
Here's an exciting new addition to the growing Canalicchio di Sopra portfolio. With fruit from one of the most celebrated subzones in the appellation, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Montosoli shows a unique profile. The wine opens to a solid core of red and purple fruits, all framed by light spice, crushed stone or chalky limestone. The fiber of this wine is lean, tight and elegantly streamlined. It hits the palate with intensity and softness, and it delivers especially fine tannins. Francesco Ripaccioli made 3,733 bottles and 200 magnums.
