Canalicchio di Sopra Vigna La Montosoli Brunello di Montalcino 2018

Description

Canalicchio di Sopra’s 2018 Vigna La Montosoli, its debut single-vineyard bottling from this celebrated hill, is drop-dead gorgeous. Fragrant and all about elegance, it opens with enticing scents of wild rose, botanical herb, new leather and forest berry. Seamlessly fusing finesse and structure, the delicious palate delivers juicy Morello cherry, raspberry sprinkled with cinnamon, rosemary and thyme before a savory saline mineral finish. It boats great energy and impeccable balance, with taut, refined tannins and vibrant acidity. I just love it. Drink: 2025-2038. Score – 100. (Kerin O’Keefe, kerinokeefe.com, Nov. 2022)
