93 points James Suckling: "A firm, chewy Brunello with cherry, walnut and black-truffle character, as well as tile undertones. It’s full-bodied with dark fruit and mahogany and cedar undertones. Tight and wooded at the moment, but should come round with bottle age. Give it time. Try after 2023." (11/2020) K&L Notes: Poggiarellino is an evolving star in our Direct Import portfolio. From Montalcino, this tiny winery is making superb wines at stunning prices. We've been importing them for over a decade and their wines have simply gotten better and better.

93 points Vinous: "The bouquet on the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is almost confectionary, with sweet Christmas spice giving way to sugar-dusted plums, black cherries, cloves and hints of cocoa. It washes across the palate with velvety waves of polished red fruits, as hints of sour citrus and inner rose tones create contrast and balance. This tapers off structured with fine tannins, a twang of tart black currant and salted licorice. The 2016 needs time to unwind and integrate the wood spice that currently dominates the nose, but there’s a lot und...

94 points Wine Enthusiast: "New leather, ripe black-skinned fruit, tobacco and menthol are just some of the aromas you'll find in this delicious red. Full-bodied and elegantly structured, the accessible palate delivers dried cherry, raspberry jam, licorice and a hint of white pepper set against velvety tannins. (KO)" (04/2022) 93 points James Suckling: "Extremely refined and together 2017, with round, fine tannins that show tension and balance. Medium to full body, creamy texture and a delicious finish.

94 points Wine Advocate: "This is a second single-vineyard wine made by Cortonesi. The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Poggiarelli reveals dense and rich fiber that wraps thickly but smoothly over the palate. This wine is woven tightly with soft layers of black fruit, plum, spice, tar and licorice. It is important to underline the difference between the more compact and vertical La Mannella against this more generous and broad-based wine, especially when making food-pairing decisions. This is your proverbial charred-meat wine. (ML)" (02/2022) 93 points Jam...

94 points Vinous: "The 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva does a great job of taking the warmth of the vintage mixed with extended aging to create a beautifully balanced wine. It blends rich exotic spices with black cherries, wild herbs, hints of leather and flowery undergrowth to form an alluring bouquet that keeps you coming back to the glass. It’s creamy in texture, casting a savory display of wild berry fruit across a medium bodied frame, as salty minerals saturate, and lively acids maintain freshness. Youthfully dense and poised, this tapers off to...

93 points Vinous: "The 2019 Rosso di Montalcino Ginestreto takes things to a more classic place with dried strawberries, dusty florals, cloves and nuances of worn leather. It washes across the palate with a textural wave of ripe red and black fruits, supported by brisk acidity, as a salty core of minerals and fine tannins slowly saturates. The 2019 finishes structured and long, reminding me more of Brunello than Rosso, while leaving hints of licorice and minty herbs to linger on. The Ginestreto impresses once again with its amazing combination of fruit, ...

It’s full-bodied and chewy with a tight, solid palate and finish. A little chewy now, but it will soften nicely with bottle age.

Decanter: "Earthy and rustic, with energy and drive on the palate. Some cedar and spice characters, and generous alcohol. (Panel Tasting)" (06/2019) Wine Advocate: "The 2016 Rosso di Montalcino is a handy and versatile wine, especially if you are planning any outdoor barbecuing events. This wine offers good intensity, but it stays focused at the same time. It seems intent on delivering the basics of Sangiovese without going overboard in any exaggerated way.

Made with organically grown grapes, this is an absolute stunner, offering enticing scents of woodland berry, forest floor, blue flower, eucalyptus and culinary spice. It’s energized and linear, delivering delicious layers of flavor including juicy red cherry, cinnamon, black tea and blood orange accompanied by taut, extremely refined tannins and vibrant acidity.

94 points Decanter: "Owner Gianni Pignattai farms 3.7 hectares of Brunello vineyards distributed among three separate plots, which he blends together. Following an admirable effort in the challenging 2017 vintage, Pietroso follows up with a beautiful 2018. It exudes pure red cherry and rose underscored by new leather and a suggestion of vanilla. Midweight and understated, this well-parsed Brunello offers just enough to sink your teeth into. The tannins are silky yet assertive, jaunty acidity elevates the red berry flavours, and the finish rings out with ...

This is a seductress on the palate, silky and supple, with a pretty inner sweetness and mineral-tinged red berries that add a more tactile feel toward the close.

92 points John Gilman: "The 2006 vintage was the last where Ricardo Campinoti did not produce any single vineyard bottlings, and this has probably given a bit more complexity to his Brunello normale in this year. The wine is really excellent, as this is a more classic vintage and the measured ripeness of 13.5 percent translates into marvelous aromatic complexity on the nose, with scents of cherries, red plums, coffee, excellent soil tones, orange peel, Tuscan herbs, cedar and a touch of lavender wafting from the glass.

Ian D'Agata for Vinous: "Cerbaiona was bought in the fall of 2015 by a large group of friends led by Gary Rieschel and Matthew Fioretti. The latter was the owner of Summa Vitis, a US wine import company, which he closed in 2009 in order to fulfill his dream of being a full-time wine producer. Fioretti couldn’t have been any happier when Cerbaiona, one of Montalcino’s most admired estates, came up for sale. Reportedly, the group paid an astronomical 5.8 million euros for the property, which has made some of Montalcino’s most sought after Brunellos in the ...
