Tasting Notes
Renieri's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a wine of infinite depth and personality. It makes a huge impact on the senses thanks to the power of its extract and the boldness of its aromas. This is no small Brunellino. It's a wine of huge aspirations and horizons that will appeal to those who appreciate the extra meat and padding on display. Its overtly generous personality delivers tones of black fruit, shaved truffle, wet earth, prune, candied fruit, cigar box and wet tobacco. On the palate, it shows an irresistible sense of density and softness. This excellent wine can be consumed now or in ten years. Jan 2015, www.robertparker.com, Drink: 2017-2035

Loads of dark fruits such as blackberry and brambleberry with fresh-mushroom undertones. Full body, firm tannins and a long, long finish. Structured but delicious and captivating. Drink or hold. Jan 2015, www.jamessuckling.com
Renieri 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a pretty, fruit-driven wine to drink now and over the next decade. Sweet red cherry, plum, earthiness, rose petal, savory herb and game notes add nuance in a translucent, expressive Brunello with good overall complexity and balance.
