Swirling unlocks depths of dried black cherry, dusty rose, crushed stone, violet pastille and clove. It's round and soothing on the palate, with perfumed red berry fruit, mineral tones and textures of pure silk. This displays remarkable balance through the raspberry-tinged finish, which is long and structured but still fresh. The 2021 is fantastic and harmonious throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e100 points Kerin O'Keefe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eTruffle, violet, ripe wild berry \u003cspan class=\"citation-7\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-6 citation-7\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-6 citation-7 citation-9\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-6 citation-7 citation-8 citation-9\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-6 citation-7 citation-8 citation-9 citation-11\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"citation-6 citation-7 citation-8 citation-9 citation-10 citation-11 citation-end-11\"\u003eand dark spice aromas mingle with a whiff of new leather on the outrageously gorgeous Baricci 2021 Brunello Montosoli.

The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is balanced and tense, offering dark fruit flavors of blackberry alongside crushed stone. The estate’s vineyards always deliver a pronounced mineral tone. The wine is quite fleshy on the palate—textured and rich—but it should shed this baby fat with additional years in the cellar. Sourced from the historic Montosoli hill, one of Montalcino’s most celebrated crus, Baricci’s Brunello is known for its precision, longevity and site transparency. The wine is aged in Slavonian oak, and 16,500 bottles were produced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eViticulture\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eVarietal composition:\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e100% Sangiovese Grosso\u003cbr\u003eVineyard location: Montosoli Cru\u003cbr\u003eSoil composition: Galestro terrain, mixture of quartz, schist and sandstone\u003cbr\u003eTraining method: Spurred cordon and Guyot\u003cbr\u003eVineyard: Elevation is 280-300 m a.s.l.; planting density is 4,000 Ha; vines face east – southeast, vines average 40 years of age\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWinemaking\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eHarvest: Hand harvested\u003cbr\u003eFermentation container: Stainless steel vats (21 days at 28 - 30°C)\u003cbr\u003eMaceration technique: On the skins for 25 days with frequent pumping over\u003cbr\u003eType of aging container: Slavonian oak barrels of 40 Hl\u003cbr\u003eLength of aging: 36 months\u003cbr\u003eLength of bottle aging: 6 months\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlcohol:\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e14.5%\u003cbr\u003eResidual sugar: 0,8 g\u003cbr\u003eAcidity: L5.7 g\/L\u003cbr\u003eDry extract: 31 g\/L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWinemaker: Federico Buffi\u003cbr\u003eVineyard area planted: 5 Ha – 12.35 acres\u003cbr\u003eProduction of Rosso, Brunello \u0026amp; Riserva: 32,000 bottles\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brunello di Montalcino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44155216691334,"sku":"JB-Baricci-Brunello-21","price":104.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0075\/0338\/0543\/files\/BaricciBrunello_bab1eb11-41d6-482a-9ee6-bf4f67368bb6.png?v=1783800245","url":"https:\/\/www.winesolutions.com\/products\/baricci-brunello-di-montalcino-2021","provider":"Wine Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
