Lot #635. Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino 2017

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 95 WA.
"Alessandro Mori's Il Marroneto 2017 Brunello di Montalcino opens to a very distinguished and unique character that makes this wine easy to recognize in a lineup of Brunello. This hot and dry growing season made for more powerful aromas and sometimes riper flavors in the appellation, generally speaking. But this magically lean-bodied wine follows its own path, and the warmth of the summer seems to have cemented almost exotic aromas of bay leaf, crushed flower, campfire ash and iron ore. The wine is exceedingly silky and elegant, but instead of opulence, you get streamlined tension accompanied by lifted, immediate aromas of fruit, flowers and light spice." Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, Feb 2022
Provenance: The Arctique Cellar
Notes: 1 Very lightly wine stained, 1 nicked labels.
