Wow! Obviously a baby but stunning clarity and beautiful ripe red cherry fruit with caressing tannins - almost irresistible but so much more to come

Lovely perfumed nose. Crunchy ripe fruit which is dark cherries but not extracted or cooked. Great taste and a serious well structured wine

Decanted and drank over 1.5 hours in a restaurant. Macerated cherries, pomegranate, herbs and a faint, savory balsamic note. Mild tannins and dancing, but not bracing acidity on the tongue led to a 30 to 40 second finish. it’s young and beautiful with many good years ahead.

Heavier than the classic light extraction seen in many marroneto. Obviously young but tannins in the background. More dark fruit than the brunello. Will be interesting to try again in 5 or so years

4/16/2024 - Philip67 Likes this wine: 93 points

Good bright red cherry fruit with tar and leather behind. Dry on the finish, which reflects the massive tannins here, along with enlivening freshness. Good length, some complexity. Drinking nicely now, no need to wait, as to wait for the tannins to soften will likely mean waiting until the fruit has all but disappeared.

A private dinner (Café Parlotte, Amsterdam, NL): Wonderfully elegant (13.5% ABV) and juicy style, real depth of flavour, crushed red berries, spicy depth, floral lift, balanced and harmonious, structured but flowing, transparent and precise, minerally energy and sandy tannins, long and layered finish. Great charm. Even more stylish than the excellent Ignaccio 2019. Stunning Rosso.

PnP, which is the play now. Gorgeous red cherry and violets nose. Aged nicely with a balanced palate of red/black fruit and secondary elements. Cola, coffee, graphite, olive? Great body. Drink now

Served blind. I whiffed, but that always happens with Sangiovese. This had red cherry, a healthy dose of spice and tea leaves. Approachable structure and vibrant acidity. Good complexity and highly aromatic. Very nice wine.

Excellent Brunello! Still very tannin forward but fruit and floral notes shine through. Sour cherry, spices, leather, and slight oak. I think this approachable now but will be phenomenal in 10 years. 94 points.

Pretty much open from the start. Given a splash decant. Dried red fruits with some tea leaves and light spice note. Quite fragrant with an elegant vibe. Vibrant palate that’s quite supple initially then firms up in the backend. Lengthy deep finish. Very good now and enjoyable.

Not yet rating as I think this may still be too young, or needed longer air exposure. There's really nice cherry flavor, wet stone, pencil shaving, and something fresh and medicinal. Just not as open as I thought it might be at 13 years of age, and finishing a bit short. Will wait a few more years for my next bottle.

Tuesday Night Blind Tasting (Bin 75): Tasted blind. Lovely nose, red sour cherry fruit, feminine style, sweet finish, but with tannic grip. I initially called it Tuscan Sangiovese, but the group consensus was Nebbiolo and that group think swayed me.

2016 Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

3/12/2024 - Robmcl920 Likes this wine: NR

The '16 Brunello was attractive, although a bit on the light side and noticeably less complex than the Madonna, whereas in some other vintages like '19 I noticed less of a difference between the two wines.

I found light red berry fruit, citrus peel, and mint, with the citrus peel note being quite prominent. On the palate, the wine is medium to light in body with red fruit & red floral notes, and it seems to lack a bit of concentration and lacks the inner sweetness to make it a great wine. Or perhaps it is just tight and clenched right now. Hard to read today, but I found this relatively unexciting whereas the '16 Madonna was clearly one of the top wines of the tasting.

3/12/2024 - Robmcl920 Likes this wine: NR

The '17 Brunello is a beautiful wine and one where it's no crime to open a bottle today. The aromatics are wide open and very floral, with sweet red roses, red berry fruit, and mint. While I believe '17 was a warmer year in Brunello and in theory less classic, the fruit tones here are lighter and to me more attractive than the '16 or '19. At least in Barolo, the aromas here would be indicative of a cool, classic year.

On the palate, the '17 Brunello shows beautiful sweetness with red berry fruit, red florals, and mint, with minimal perception of tannin.

The '17s were probably my favorite wines from the whole dinner in terms of how they showed today.

2019 Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino

Sangiovese more

3/12/2024 - Robmcl920 Likes this wine: NR

The regular Brunello seemed quite close to the Madonna in 2019 based on this brief impression, with the Madonna just showing a bit more depth / concentration but also more tannin. As was the theme across most vintages, the straight Brunello was more texturally elegant and approachable.

On the nose, I found dark red to black cherry fruit, dark floral tones, bitter chocolate, and spices. The texture here is more medium in body with elegant tannins, more approachable than the big and tannic Madonna.
