Description
 
Reputed to be one of the most famous wineries of Italy, Altesino needs little introduction. They make wines that are consistent in quality and classic in style. Their Brunello di Montalcinos are benchmark wines that every wineries dream to make. It is worth noting that James Suckling of the Wine Spectator has rated the 2001 vintage as one of the best ever for the Brunello di Montalcino region and with Altesino making some of the year’s top wines.

The Altesino 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is ripe and round with lots of pretty textural richness and juicy fruit flavors. These qualities tie in nicely with the character of the vintage that saw long and hot summer days. Dark fruit, plum and blackcurrant pave the way for savory spice, tobacco and limestone. The effect is soothing and rich, and the wine remains perfumed and silky to the end. The tannins are well managed in this hot-vintage wine. Fruit is sourced over 25 hectares of vines with tufo soils and alberese rock. Production is 110,000 bottles.Wine Advocate 94
