Poderi Sanguineto I e II Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
Size750MLVintage2015SKU25965
The gorgeous nose leads with black cherry, plum, red currants and moroccan orange cake before evolving into more savory and mysterious floral, tobacco, meat and leather territory. As is standard with SanguinetoAltesino Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
Size375MLVintage2015SKU23688
A very nuanced but powerful Brunello showing hibiscus, raspberry tea, gunpowder, petrichor, dried orange rind and spearmint. The rows of sharp tannins are very defined and agile, and the acidity is tensely strung up in overtures of vivacious red fruit. A beautiful, nimble Brunello 2015.Castello di Cacchiano Chianti Classico Riserva
Size750MLVintage2018SKU29463
A clean nose of cherries, gravel and cumin. Somewhat shy in its expression, needs at least two hours for the nose to open up. Elegant palate. Fresh red fruits and lifting acidity running through its core from entry to finish. Remind me of a Brunello minus the structure. Medium-bodied and polished structure. Clean finish.Castello di Monsanto Chianti Classico Riserva
Size1.5LVintage2015SKU25688

Size750MLVintage2020SKU26755
This is a plush and velvety Chianti Classico, with ample notes of toasted vanilla and baking spices that cushion the red cherry and plum tones. The wine shows good freshness and acidity, suggesting a few years in the cellar will allow the fruit and oak to further integrate.Tolaini Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Montebello Sette
Size750MLVintage2014SKU25595
The 2013 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Montebello Sette is a pure expression of Sangiovese aged in traditional botte grande for two years. The wine offers a clean and very complete interpretation of the grape with the added benefit of the more robust fruit tones of dark cherry and plum that you often associate with the Castelnuovo Berardenga sub zone.Villa Sant'Anna Vino Nobile di Montepulciano
Size750MLVintage2016SKU19271

Size750MLVintage2019SKU25636
A decadent nose of vanilla, brambleberries, resin, coffee beans, tobacco and hot stones with a touch of citrus and other fresher elements. Full-bodied and very intense on the palate, but the ripe tannins also show plenty of firmness. The bright acidity carries this through to a delightfully long finish. From organically grown grapes. 96pts James SucklingCollelceto Brunello di Montalcino
Size750MLVintage2013SKU23707
Full medium red. Strawberry, red cherry, licorice, violet and spicy oak on the perfumed nose. Supple, suave and fine-grained, offering juicy flavors of red and black cherry, licorice, chocolate and brushy herbs. Not especially complex but nicely pliant and very long; a hint of volatile acidity adds freshness. 92pts Vinous MediaGiacomo Toscana Rosso "A Mio Padre
Size750MLVintage2019SKU29815
In the mouth it is a velvet embrace and it shows tannic sweetness, warmth, and structure that make the persistence aromatic, long and intriguing. Giacomo is a big brawny representation of what Merlot can be in the hands of a legendary winemaker like Giacomo Tachis of Sassicaia fame.Poggio il Castellare Brunello di Montalcino
Size750MLVintage2013SKU27382
Sporting cherry, strawberry, floral and leather aromas and flavors, this vibrant style is harmonious and structured, yet more elegant than powerful, with fine intensity and a lingering aftertaste. 95pts Wine Spectator
Vasco Sassetti Brunello di Montalcino
Size750MLVintage2015SKU16144
Vasco Sassetti made a powerful brooding Brunello that conveys a healthy dose of dark minerality and earthiness that balances its ripeness. Despite its power, this is a fresh and lively wine. An attractive black cherry skin subtle bitterness reinforces the seriousness of this Brunello.Poggio Alto Brunello di Montalcino
Size750MLVintage2016SKU27735
This wine opens to an inky dark appearance and a deep garnet color. The aromas span over to black fruit, oak spice, tobacco and espresso. They definitely represent the more contemporary side of the Sangiovese bouquet. There is good textural firmness and volume here to glue all those strong flavors tightly together. 93pts Wine SpectatorAgostina Pieri Brunello di Montalcino

Size750MLVintage2012SKU23671
The bouquet is rich and complete with layer after layer of ripe fruit intensity. The effect is succulent and rich. This Brunello drinks beautifully right now and shows a contemporary style with thick extraction and soft tannins. The mouthfeel also delivers good density and fullness, and that does not come easy in this vintage. 95pts James SucklingFontodi Chiant Classico
Size750MLVintage2020SKU26049
There are floral sensations of fresh sweet violets, forest rose and red rose, along with maraschino cherry jam. Dry to the taste, with good body, taste and freshness, with vivid tannin. Very good correspondence to the nose.Caprili Brunello di Montalcino
Size750MLVintage2018SKU27163
This is a very decadent Brunello with dried stems, charcuterie, bay leaf, Thai basil and earth. Full-bodied and dense, the deeply interlocked layers of dark fruit nearly tripping over the ropey, chewy tannin structure. 95pts James SucklingAltesino Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
Size750MLVintage2017SKU29043
