Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2013 (1500ml)

'Il Marroneto, a tiny six-hectare estate on the northern side of Montalcino, has emerged as a major player in just about the last decade. Alessandro Mori crafts uncompromisingly traditional Brunellos of real pedigree. The straight Brunello is a bit more classically austere than the Madonna delle Grazie parcel selection, which is richer, deeper and darker. In many vintages, I prefer the straight Brunello, but in 2011 both wines are magnificent, although they retain their distinctive personalities. Readers who have not tasted these Brunellos yet owe it to themselves to do so.' Antonio Galloni - Vinous
