2015 BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2015 BY VILLA AL CORTILE

Brunello Di Montalcino DOCG 2015 by Villa Al Cortile is a particularly compelling Brunello. It is definitely one of the 2015 vintage’s top performers at its price point, and frankly I couldn’t be more excited to share it with our clients.

“The 2015 vintage is a historical year for Brunello di Montalcino that nobody should miss. The wines show impressive precision of vivid fruit, fine tannins and freshness in acidity despite their ripeness and richness which makes them some of the most exciting in years.”

– James Suckling

WHAT THE CRITICS SAY

95 Points / Editor’s Choice
Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, May 2020

“Fragrant blue-flower, perfumed berry, new leather and pipe-tobacco aromas waft out of the glass along with whiffs of a freshly tilled vineyard. The smooth, elegantly structured palate delivers juicy Marasca cherry, crushed black raspberry and baking spice framed in polished tannins. It also has surprising freshness for the hot vintage that lends balance.”
