JS 93 points Weather conditions in 2014 were characterised by a sunny spring season with pleasant temperatures. Summer was cool with a few beneficial rain showers that helped the grapevines reach the ripening phase in excellent condition. The period immediately prior to the harvest (in the second half of September) was perfect: no rain, plenty of sun and significant night/ day temperature variations, all of which helped produce fantastic grapes for an excellent Brunello. Ruby red colour with purple highlights, this Brunello welcomes us with notes of kirsch and spices and initial complex and balsamic nuances. In the mouth, the wine shows its power and substance free, however, from any excesses. Soft and well-rounded it also surprises with a crispness supported by minty highlights
