Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne Siro Pacenti 2012

Le Brunello di Montalcino de Siro Pacenti, auquel s'ajoute aujourd'hui la mention "Vecchie Vigne", est une des références de son appellation. Structuré et long, aux tanins soyeux, ce vin mise sur l'élégance. Il voit le jour sur deux parcelles dont l'âge moyen des vignes est de 35 ans. Les rendements naturellement faibles favorisent la concentration de ce vin. L'élevage en barriques dure 24 mois.

Notes de dégustation

Wineadvocate

Giancarlo Pacenti knows his land well and is a skillful farmer, especially with regards to navigating a challenging vintage like this. The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne boasts a beautifully saturated ruby color that appears healthy and bright. The aromas are presented with precision and balance. A wine like this offers irrefutable evidence that old vines are the best remedy in a hot and dry vintage. The wine's various elements are intact and focused. Dark cherry, candied plum, exotic spice, tar and licorice form a united front. I prefer this vintage to 2011. Drink: 2017-2027.

Vinous 93+

Vinous

Dark red with an amber tinge. Ripe red cherry, sweet spices, grilled beef and blood orange, plus hints of cedar and new oak. Enters sweet and broad, then tighter and structured, but with refined tannins providing support to the sweetly spicy red fruit flavors. The finish is long and very pure. There’s a depth to this wine that the classico bottling does not have, a dpeth of flavor that derives from the old vines; spent 24 montsh in 70-80% new oak.

Suckling 95

Suckling

Aromas of ripe fruit such as sweet strawberries and hints of orange peel and chocolate. Medium to full body, soft and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Riper style. Drink or hold.
