Reviewed February 2026
The 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino Bassolino Di Sopra is layered and profound on the nose, with sweet orange, spice, black raspberries, kirsch, and a captivating aromatic depth that's as good as it gets. The palate is medium to full-bodied and seamless, with velvety tannins, pinpoint acidity, and a level of refinement and length that puts it among the very best wines of the region in 2019. Everything resonates with precision, and it should age effortlessly for decades. Drink 2026-2055. (AF)

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Bassolino di Sopra is a model of elegance, power and complexity. This displays a blend of crushed rocks and balsam herbs, giving way to notes of dried violet, fresh mint and black cherry. It's silken and serene, washing across the palate with waves of mineral-tinged dark red fruits and exotic spice, all guided by a core of tantalizing acidity. Despite its depth and concentration, this finishes remarkably fresh, with grippy tannins lingering under an air of clove and tobacco. Classic to the core, the Bassolino di Sopra is coming along beautifully yet still many years away from its drinking window. Look out for the 2019, which will be released in the spring of 2026. (EG)

Notes

Bassolino di Sopra is drawn from the upper section of the Pian Bassolino vineyard, a defined site at 370–390 meters. The soils combine limestone-rich clay, limestone and marl. For the 2019, the Sangiovese was picked on September 17 from vines that were twenty-two years old. After selection in the vineyard and further sorting in the cellar, fermentation began naturally in oak and lasted twenty-six days, followed by another twenty days on the skins. The wine then spent forty-six months in a single twenty-hectoliter oak cask before bottling on October 11, 2023.
