95/100 - Darkly alluring and spicy, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino emanates from the glass with an earthy blend of crushed rocks, savory herbs, spiced blood orange and dried cherries. This soothes the palate with its soft textures and depths of wild berry fruit. Brisk acidity and mineral tones add lift but also depth. The 2019 finishes dramatically long and structured, turning youthfully inward on itself as orange and rosy inner florals resonate. The house style is on full display here, elevated by the radiant fruits of the 2019 vintage. - Eric Guido, Vinous
94/100 - The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino opens to dried cassis and cranberry, and there is a hint of something floral and fragile, like crushed red rose petals or potpourri. However, the wine also shows growing momentum, especially as it opens in the glass and you start to recognize dark spice, clove, bay leaf and thyme. There is a point of sweetness on the mid-palate, even some dried raspberry, rendering an overall more accessible wine. Compared to the brilliant fruit in the Filo di Seta, this village wine has drier notes with hints of daisy greens and dried currant. - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
17++/20 - Lustrous ruby. A little spicy and still quite tight on the nose. Compact cherry fruit and with plenty of depth on the palate. Proper concentration with lots of supple acidity and a core of gravelly tannins. Needs more time but this shows lots of promise. Beautiful label. - Walter Speller, JancisRobinson.com
93/100 - Romitorio’s charming 2019 highlights the juiciness of Sangiovese. It is enthusiastic in scents of sweet wet earth, sage and cocoa. Spacious and airy on the palate where succulent, citrusy acidity pushes flavours of pomegranate and orange. This is elegantly framed by fine, streamlined tannins. A forest-like intensity comes through on the finish. Pleasurable even at this youthful stage. Vinification and malolactic conversion take place in a combination of stainless steel and cement followed by maturation in equal proportions of Slavonian oak botti and used French oak tonneaux. - Michaela Morris, Decanter
93/100 - The dark red/ruby 2019 Brunello Di Montalcino displays a roasty and layered profile with notes of stewed red plum, cedar, baking spice, and charred rosemary. Medium to full bodied, it’s giving on the palate, with a supple and savory tone, sweet tannins, and a snap of tangy tea leaf on the finish. It’s another brooding wine, but it feels more giving to drinking now. Drink it over the next 10 years. Drink 2024-2034. - Audrey Frick, JebDunnuck.com
