A personal favorite from the northern reaches of the Brunello DOCG, Altesino crafted a wine in 2019 that should not be missed. One of the finest of this generation, and arguably the best since the epic 2010s, the 2019 vintage is setting a new standard for Brunello's modern era. Crafted from 100% Sangiovese Grosso, hand-harvested from the Altesino, Castelnuovo dell'Abate, Macina, and Pianezzine vineyards, this Brunello is an example of finesse and elegance, inherent to Montalcino's best vineyard sites. Dominated by flavors of freshly picked blueberries, this classically styled Italian red develops aromas of red fruits, with violet and black cherry notes, rising on the long coffee and oaky finish. Aged 42 months in barrel and 6 months in bottle, Altesino's velvety tannins, balanced acidity, and amazing texture make this Brunello di Montalcino one of Italy's top reds. Don't miss the $49.99 price!

"Pouring a rich ruby color, the 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino offers an attractive nose of cherry candies, sweet herbs, polished leather, and orange oils. It moves seamlessly to the palate with equally harmonious structure and a great, long finish. Medium to full-bodied, it lasts for ages. This is one of those wines that’s going to have a very wide drinking window and is exceptional already." Jeb Dunnuck, 95 Points

"The Altesino 2019 Brunello di Montalcino boasts a rich and savory side that this wine wears very well. There is a beautiful level of dark fruit that folds into the wine's velvety texture. Blackberry and plum envelop the palate, adding elegant full-bodied volume and fine tannins along the way." The Wine Advocate, 95 Points
