Padelletti - Brunello di Montalcino 2018

Continue Shopping Add to Wish List

The Padelletti’s have four hectares from which they produce a Brunello. The maceration is at a minimum of 20 days but can be up to 30 days, depending on the character of the vintage. It is aged for two to three years in large format French and Slavonian oak barrels. The wine is left in bottle for six to twelve months before being released.

“What a darling; the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino from Padelletti seduces with vivid black raspberries, wild blueberries and sweet roses forming its bouquet. It envelopes the palate with ripe red fruits and exotic spice, all energized by a core of vibrant acidity, as saline-minerals add a crunchy sensation. Its tannins are round and sweet, gently tugging at the cheeks, as hints of hard candy and licorice fade. At times, tasting the 2018 is more like eating perfectly ripe fruit off the vine than sipping wine, and I mean that in the best possible way. Give this beauty a couple of years of cellaring, and then enjoy it with abandon.”-Eric Guido
