Baricci

2021 Brunello di Montalcino Montosoli DOCG MAGNUM

“Truffle, violet, ripe wild berry and dark spice aromas mingle with a whiff of new leather on the outrageously gorgeous Baricci 2021 Brunello Montosoli. From one of the pioneering estates and always one of the best wines in the denomination, the 2021 is exceptional, delivering layers of flavors including succulent Morello cherry, licorice, blood orange, black raspberry and ground clove accompanied by a backbone of refined, tightly woven tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it lifted and balanced. Drink 2030–2041.” -100/100, Kerin O’Keefe

“Dark fruit flavors of black cherry, black currant and blackberry are accented by violet, mineral and wild herb flavors. This red is racy and complex, with terrific energy from start to finish. Though this is focused on the fruit, there’s a lot going on. Best from 2029 through 2050.”- 98/100, Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator
