94 Points

Saturday, November 12, 2011 - My first 94 pt. wine. Gorgeous! Beautiful. Almond, perfecltly integrated tannins, chocolate, sweet, fresh, elegant, perfect already right now. Although CT reviewes are misleading I think this is a perfect Brunello of a perfect vintage. I usually prefer Super Tuscans (Percarlo, Flaccianello), but since 1999 I visited Montalcino on a regaluar basis with Uccelliera loving the most. I remember visiting the Siro Pacenti vineyard in 2000 aksing for the 1997 release. I was told that this one has been sold completely already. So until today I never tasted a Siro Pacenti. I bought it yesterday and tried it today after a beautiful Canon la Gaffeliere Bordeaux. But waht can I say? How can a 2006 Brunello beat a 1998 Canon la Gaffeliere Bordeaux? Easily. Falling in love with this one. Never discuss this one before you have tried it. Will try to get some more from this wine shop in Essen, Germany. 55€
