The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino is understated in the glass, as swirling brings forward nuances of mint, white pepper, dusty black cherries and flowery underbrush. This is a soft and delicate Brunello from Canalicchio di Sopra, also quite mineral in style, impressing with its smooth contours and finesse, while showing rose-tinged red berries and hints of spice. A coating of gentle tannin lingers through the medium-length finale, along with hints of licorice, as the mouth is left watering for more.

Description

Canalicchio di Sopra, Brunello di Montalcino 2018

The 2018 is a total charmer with a beautiful balance, bolstered by the juice that would usually go into the Riserva. Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino 2018 is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes grown in the Montalcino hills, harvested by hand and carefully selected for quality. After fermentation, the wine is aged for an extended period in large oak casks (and further in bottle), allowing structure and complexity to develop while preserving the purity of fruit.

Canalicchio di Sopra

Montalcino, Italy

Canalicchio di Sopra was founded in 1962 by Primo Pacenti and today the estate is cared for by his three grandchildren, Simonetta, Marco and Francesco, who have inherited his love for the vine. The family works a total of 19 hectares of vines of which 16 hectares are within the prestigious Brunello di Montalcino appellation. These vines are split between two areas; 6 hectares of Sangiovese vines are planted on rocky schist soils in Gode di Montosoli while a further 10 hectares are planted on clay soils in Canalicchio. This combination of different Brunello terroirs helps to create a rich, multidimensional wine which combines bright red fruit with hints of dried Mediterranean herbs, leather, and baked earth. The family ages this wine in 2500 and 5000 litre Slavonian oak casks for 36 months to ensure all of the flavours are fully-integrated and there’s a silky smooth texture from the first sip.
