A classic Brunello that will reward those who wait until 2026-2027 to experience the more youthful intensity of this exceptional wine from a fantastic vintage! We suggest letting it breathe in a decanter for a couple of hours before serving, and partner with chewy, rich umami-rich dishes, like thick steaks, lamb and wild boar ragu'!
KERIN O'KEEFE 100 POINTS - "The 2019 Brunello from Costanti is breathtakingly gorgeous. Combining the intensity of the vintage and the hallmark finesse that defines the wines of this historic estate, this is a wine Brunello lovers will want in their cellars. It opens with heady aromas of fragrant blue flower, woodland berry, forest floor and new leather that on the palate segue into juicy Marasca cherry, wild raspberry, blood orange, menthol and baking spice. Firm, ultra-refined tannins offer support while bright acidity keeps it beautifully balanced and vibrant. What. A. Stunner. Drink 2027–2044. Abv: 14% Kerin O’Keefe November 2023 ©kerinokeefe.com"
VINOUS 96 POINTS - "The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is impossible to ignore. Clove and a dusting of savory spice complicate a beguiling crushed black cherry and strawberry bouquet. This presents textures of pure silk, ushering in ripe red fruits and inner florals that stain the palate in youthful concentration. The 2019 tapers off dramatically, leaving a bed of grippy tannins to grumble on as licorice and orange hints slowly fade. " Drink from 2027 - Eric Guido
