Il Marroneto
"How does Alessandro Mori and the team at Il Marroneto do it? Vintage after vintage, this portfolio stands out for its depths of vividly pure fruit, energy, character, balance and the silkiest of tannins that make them both approachable in their youth and able to mature for decades. The 2019s are no different."
Eric Guido, vinous.com
"Il Marroneto might be the single most important yet under-the-radar estate in all of Montalcino."

"Il Marroneto was purchased in 1974 by Giuseppe Mori and planted in stages, with the revered ‘Madonna della Grazia’ vineyard planted first. Sitting just below is the Brunello vineyard, planted in 1977 and 1982-1983 - from which they pick both the Brunello di Montalcino and the Rosso.
Winemaker and viticulturist, and Giuseppe’s son, Alessandro Mori has always adopted a traditional approach with a nod to elegance and an acceptance of youthful austerity and Sangiovese purity... Mori’s intuition as a winemaker means the resulting wines show a clarity of colour, great depth of perfume and taut acidity with detail and precision across a mineral inflected palate. About as good as Sangiovese can get."

2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
Extremely Limited - Special Offer $270
"The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie tempts the imagination with a dark veil of exotic florals and spices that slowly lifts to reveal dried blackberries and cherries enlivened by hints of mint and a dusting of clove. This soothes with its silken textures and ripe red berry fruits as a blend of saline minerals and fine tannins slowly collect toward the close. Structured yet incredibly long and deep, it tapers off like a black hole, inward and youthfully tense, blending sweet tannins with steeped plums and balsam herbs. The 2019 is one of the most energetic yet complex
renditions of Madonna delle Grazie I have yet tasted. I could get lost for days in this wine.."
