Brunello di Montalcino "Vecchie Vigne" 2015 - Siro Pacenti

Dieser Wein ist strukturiert, elegant, mit feinen Tanninen und großer Komplexität. Ungemein vielschichtiger und verführerischer Duft nach Beeren, Gewürzen und Leder. Er wird nicht gefiltert und nach einigen Jahren erreicht er seinen maximalen Ausdruck. Es werden jährlich rund 30.000 Flaschen produziert. Verschluss: Naturkorken

James Suckling Score: 100/100 PTS.

This is very intense on the nose with blue fruit, cool stones, brambleberries and blackberries. Wet earth,too. Full-bodied and extremely dense and powerful with a super center palate of fruit and ripe yet compact tannins. Lightly chewy and expressive. Superb transparency and integration. Goes on for minutes. One of the best Brunellos I have tasted in my career. Try after 2021, but already amazing.

Sattes funkelndes Rubin mit Granatrand. Sehr intensive und einprägsame Nase, duftet nach Zwetschken, dunklen Kirschen, etwas Lakritze und Zimt, satt. Rund und geschmeidig im Ansatz, öffnet sich mit viel präsentem, im Kern samtigem Tannin, sehr große Länge, im Finale schöner Biss.

The Siro Pacenti 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne remains one of the most contemporary wines to emerge from this sun-kissed appellation in southern Tuscany. You taste the richness and suppleness of its dark fruit and abundant blackberry. However, the wine also offers hints of exotic spice, savory tobacco and even a touch of talc powder or buttered popcorn that comes from the oak (it sees 24 months in French barrique). Indeed, this wine's lactic signature remains strong. This adds to the distinctively creamy, viscous and rich nature of the full-bodied mouthfeel. Fruit comes from old vines ranging from 35 to 50 years old. Stylistically, some of the intricacies of Sangiovese are sacrificed in the name of texture and density.

A light touch of oak is well-integrated with the cherry, plum and wild herb flavors in this powerful yet balanced red. A distinctive saline quality plays out on the long finish. A little less fruity than many of its peers, but no less complex.
