Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino 2015 - 3 Litre Bottle

Winemaker Notes

The 2015 Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino opens with dark, concentrated and mature aromas of plum and blackberry. Dense and complex on the palate the spicy taste with notes of cardamom and clove. Structured and with soft tannins, it sounds long and with a fine, cherry sweetness.

Pair this wine with your favourite hearty dishes or well-matured cheeses.

99 Points - James Suckling

Wonderful aromas of roses and sliced plums with wet earth and truffles. Then turns to raspberries and blackberries. Cherries, too. Full and firm with super integrated tannins that melt into the wine. It flows from the center palate in a beautiful sheet of fruit and tannins. Extremely long and coated with great finesse. Goes on for minutes.

96 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The Valdicava 2015 Brunello di Montalcino is a dark and sultry wine with a beautiful presentation of aromas. This full-bodied Sangiovese opens to aromas of plumy dark fruit, black cherry, cured tobacco, cola and balsam spice. There are earthy or savory tones as well, with some fragrant crushed flower or wild rose that come straight out of the classic Sangiovese playlist. Generally speaking, this Brunello veers toward black fruit aromas (as opposed to red fruits), and its smooth texture and elegant tannins are well suited to a classic Tuscan dish of pappardelle con sugo di lepre (wild rabbit) or another game sauce.

95 Points - Wine Spectator

Ripe cherry, plum, raspberry, earth and almond flavors combine in this supple red. Vivid and well-defined by the sleek structure, ending with earth, wild herb and mineral accents. Very pure, verging on racy. Best from 2023 through 2045.
