Notes from the Winemaker:

100 Points & #27 Top 100 Wines of 2016 & #8 Top 100 Italian Wines of 2016 – James Suckling:
“A wine with superb finesse and depth. So subtle and understated yet powerful and long. The tannin intensity is amazing. It just builds like a massive wave. Superb. Give this time in the bottle. The length is endless. Better in 2018.” (November 9, 2016)

96 Points – Wine Spectator:
“A pure, focused style, with a beam of black cherry anchoring the leather, mineral, hibiscus tea and earth flavors. Well-struc- tured, young and fresh, presenting a lingering aftertaste of fruit, mineral and woodsy details. Best from 2019 through 2035.” – BS (Mar 23, 2016)

93-96 Points – Vinous Media:
“The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Madonna del Piano is shaping up to be a real beauty. Powerful and dramatic, but also remarkably polished for such a big wine, the 2010 has a lot going on. Raspberry jam, wild flowers, spices, new leather, smoke and tobacco are laced into the powerful intense finish. The 2010 is an especially finessed Madonna del Piano with a bright future.” – Antonio Galloni (February 2015)
