Perhaps the slightest, ephemeral pruny note on the palate - but I mention it only for completeness, not because the wine was meaningfully less enjoyable than it ever is. Consistent with previous tasting notes, and still lovely.

I don’t remember having a better Brunello since the one time, I had a Soldera. Reddish Brown. Mature nose, overripe, dark berries, freshly turned soil, wet brick. Fresh and lively. Acidic. Soft, sofisticated and super pleasant in the mouth. Soft tannins which sneaks around the gums. Everything in the right place.

Second of two bottles. The first one in April seemed off, unfortunately kind of like ACYSO bottle in May. This bottle was excellent. Deep and dark, dark cherries, dark red plums, balsamico, mushroom. Very smooth and silky.

4th of 12, decanted an hour, perfect cork and level, now approaching full maturity, remarkably poised, complex and persistent, limited upside, 10+ years, tempted to upgrade as made a deeper impression than last bottle in Feb 22 and one of the finest BdMs I've had, Soldera included!! VF+ (19).

Fantastic showing! Cerbaiona has always been more of a miss than a hit for me. But tonight it was showing in all its glory. This is pretty ready for prime time.

2021 Cerbaiona (Molinari) Rosso di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

12/1/2023 - Short_Sips Likes this wine: 95 points

A few words to start: complexity, purity, and focus. This wine is an exceptional representation of the wines of Montalcino, and unabashedly tells you that from the first swirl of the glass. Crystal clear ruby red.
Intensely perfumed with layers of earth, mushroom, violet, and licorice. The fruit aromas have depth too, ranging from seductive dark cherry to zippy and acidic green apple.
Impressive balance on the palate for the young wine. Both the acid and fruit are bright and fresh; there is no suggestion of overdeveloped ripening or over-extraction. Tannins play well together with the overall body, medium in nature but pronounced. Alcohol 13.5%.

Exceptional wine, and I hope to be fortunate and hold onto a few bottles for some years…

1994 Cerbaiona (Molinari) Brunello di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

11/11/2023 - Hasi1965 Likes this wine: 94 points

Among the many Brunellos from the late Diego Molinari I had the pleasure to be drinking this 1994 was special! Given only an „ok-rating“ in its early days this ’94 Sangiovese seem to have developed with time. We were very surprised with it‘s strong and vibrant showing yesterday, very fruity and yes - youthful! I would give the wine even a good 10 to 20 more years in the bottle! Exciting Brunello from an unexciting vintage! (it shows that great winemakers can make good wines in bad years in Montalcino, just like Corte Pavone, who released a 2014 (very difficult harvest) Brunello that matured for 8 (!) years now in Botti Grande just the other day - I bought 3 bottles of the STUNNING wine!)

2010 Cerbaiona (Molinari) Brunello di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

10/20/2023 - Robmcl920 Likes this wine: 94 points

The '10 Cerbaiona showed similarly to the prior time I've tasted it, in 2020. This is a very enjoyable Brunello, a bit funky but in a good way. It also has this combination of richness but elegance that the best wines have. That said, as I said in 2020, I don't really understand AG's 100 point score / the market price of this wine. The flavor profile is just a bit too rustic in my view for this to score at that level.

The nose was nicely perfumed with black fruit, violets, chocolate, leather, and roasted meats, a good mix of sweet dark fruit and slightly rustic, but attractive savory characteristics. On the palate, the wine is concentrated but very elegant, with no perceptible tannins to speak of at this point. I found leather, brown spices, chocolate, violets, and black fruits, leaning a bit savory but with a very attractive core of dark fruit. This wine has a textural richness that most of the other wines in this lineup lacked, but yet it's so finessed.

I would suggest drinking the '10 over the next few years, as I don't see upside from here and it is so good right now.

Ruby colored, with a very elegant nose scented by lilac and creosote. But needs time to open up on the palate, which is light and has a lovely structure, but is also currently a little tannic and closed. I would hold for a few years, but it should be a lovely wine at peak.

And elegant wine that is drinking well - was a bit closed in the beginning but really opened up and gave us a good experience. The fruit is cherries and plums also got tobacco and some spices - this is a well made and well balanced wine that deserves 93.

Birthday dinner with good wine friends: Perfect appearance on the cork without seepage but unfortunately it was still flawed. Drinkable but obvious signs of oxidation and plummy notes. I was really willing this to show well as Cerbaionas can be magical, but unfortunately my hit rate hasn’t been great.

Very crunchy and youthful but with time in the glass revealed gorgeous dark cherry fruit with notes of charred wood and dark spices. Quite structured still and should benefit from further aging. The finish is intense and complex with notes of crunchy minerals and more wood-spice. Very impressive Brunello. 94+

Slow ox two hours. Lovely floral nose with herbal notes. The wine is medium to full bodied showing cherry, olives, tobacco and herbs. Expansive and elegant. Showing the ripe fruit of 2007 but not out of balance. In a great place.
