Castiglion del Bosco Brunello Di Montalcino 2019 1.5L Magnum

This exceptional, large-format Brunello displays a beautiful inner sweetness balanced perfectly by crisp red fruits, sweet tobacco, cedar, and mineral tones. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and beautifully structured, showcasing wonderfully integrated tannins that deliver superb tension, focus, and a creamy texture. The finish is remarkably long, vivid, and grippy, offering an aftertaste of pure primary concentration that lingers elegantly.

Food Pairing: A monumental match for grilled prime ribeye steaks, slow-braised venison, wild boar ragù, truffle-infused pasta dishes, and aged Pecorino cheeses.

96 Points - James Suckling 

This is really fine on the palate with wonderfully integrated tannins that give tension and focus. It’s medium-bodied with lovely berry, cherry, cedar and spice. Peaches and flower stems, too. Creamy texture. Extremely long and vivid. Structured, but showing beautiful drinkability with wonderful balance and form. One to drink or hold.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast 

The nose starts floral, with aromas of roses, vanilla and cherry, then turns earthy, before spiced undertones of cloves and bergamot float to the surface. The cherries return on the palate, with more bitter citrus and earth tones, while finely grained tannins tickle the back of your tongue.

94 Points - Wine Spectator 

Cherry, plum, leather, earth and tomato leaf flavors highlight this broad, beefy red, with iron and sanguine accents creeping in as this winds down on the finish. Succulent and long, with a dusty grip in the end. Best from 2027 through 2043. 8,500 cases made, 3,750 cases imported.
