THE BEST EVER VINTAGE FOR BRUNELLO?

Talenti has a longstanding reputation for consistency and quality in Montalcino, producing traditional style wines with character and a sense of place. Pierluigi Talenti is one of the founding fathers of Brunello di Montalcino and this great estate is now run by his Grandson, Riccardo Talenti. If you a fan of Brunello, these wines are absolutely must-haves. In addition to the groundbreaking Piero, we are thrilled to be able to offer a special selection of Talenti's highly acclaimed wines. The 2018 Rosso di Montalcino was given one of the highest ratings for a rosso on Vinous, up there with legendary producers like Biondi-Santi, Stella di Campalto and Poggio di Sotto. This is an everyday wine that drinks WAY out of its price point and it will continue to improve over the next 5 or so years.

Riccardo Talenti sources fruit from five vineyards spread out between higher elevations of Sant'Angelo in Colle and lower elevations of Castelnuovo dell'Abate to create a southern yet wonderfully balanced expression of Brunello, one that is capable of pleasing a broad range of palates.
