2013 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Vininformation

94 point, JamesSuckling.com: ”Aromas of dried fruits, spice, mushroom and sage. Full body, ripe tannins and a flavorful finish. Classic 2013. Beautiful now. One for the cellar, too!”.

93 point, Wine Spectator: "This is concentrated and densely structured, offering cherry, plum, chocolate, leather, earth and tobacco flavors. Starts out fluid, turning a bit lean and chewy on the finish, yet stays long, so give this a few years. Best from 2023 through 2037."

94 point, Wine Enthusiast: "Alluring scents of sweet pipe tobacco, baking spice, violet and baked plum abound in this fragrant red. Elegantly structured, the bright, polished palate offers Marasca cherry, raspberry compote and licorice framed by well-knit, silky tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it balanced. It's already tempting but the best is yet to come. Drink 2021–2028."

92 point, RobertParker.com: "The 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Pian delle Vigne shows a level of increased volume and texture that appears less frequently in its peers. This wine has always marched to its own drumbeat, and this newest release is no exception. A warmer microclimate characterizes the spot where these vineyards are located, and the fruit is opulent, ripe and exuberant as a result. The Antinori house style also comes through, and the wine has a more contemporary or international outlook as a result. What I really want to say is that Pian delle Vigne shows great results in this vintage. The Pian is back."

91 point, Vinous.com: "Good deep red-ruby. Red and dark berries, roast coffee, peony and game on the nose. Rich and pliant on the palate, showing considerable tannins yet coming across as rather gentle in style. The juicy red and blue fruit flavors and sweet spice notes linger nicely on the long finish, complicated by underbrush and game. Not the most concentrated or complex Brunello you’ll ever taste, but this lovely wine offers earlier appeal than most."

En stor Brunello med en usædvanligt intens duft med noter af viol og af frugter som blomme og solbær, samt et fint og velintegreret strejf af egetræ. Du finder også komplekse noter af krydderier, chokolade, læder og tobaksblade. Vinen er fyldig, elegant med silkebløde tanniner. Der er en flot eftersmag med spændstig syre og mineralsk friskhed. Pian delle Vigne Brunello er en oplevelse til f.eks. dyrevildt, lam eller oksekød.
