Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino 2011 (750 ml)

Wine Advocate 95"The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino shows an impressive level of richness and density that starts with a long succession of black fruit aromas, dried cherry, spice, leather and tobacco. There are evident hints of the warm vintage that become apparent thanks to the blackness of the fruit and the general softness of the aromas. The wine's texture is yielding and dense with extra layers of plump fruit and chewy richness. This the proverbial "restaurant Brunello" that will drink beautifully in the near and medium-term. It already tastes spectacular and is beautifully fleshed out at this young age."James Suckling 94"Loads of fruit, with dried berry, tar, and meat. Full body with firm, silky tannins. Very flavorful. Decadent and rich. Powerful for the vintage. I like this as much as the 2010. Drink or hold."AboutThe Uccelliera estate is located in the warm southern Castelnuovo dellAbate part of the Montalcino zone. Despite his familys long connection to Montalcino, Andrea Corton
