Salvioni's 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is deceptively medium in body and almost Burgundian in style at this stage in its life. Rose petal, cherry pit, smoke and tobacco notes abound as this delicate, understated Brunello very gradually reveals its striking beauty...Once again, the Salvioni family has crafted one of the most exquisite, pure wines in Montalcino...Readers who can find the 2010 should not hesitate, as it is fabulous. I imagine the 2010 will provide 20-25 years of drinking pleasure. Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Call me a sucker for the more rustic edge and brawn of Brunello but this is the one that caught me even though its neighbor Cerbaiona was so alluring tonight. I just want to see where the salvioni will go to. Not that this was dirty or funk just had more stuffing.

Revelatory, and possibly the best young Brunello that I’ve had the pleasure to taste, the 2010 Salvioni displayed a multifaceted bouquet of bright red fruits, floral funk and spice which became deeper and richer over time, turning to dark, mulled spices, tobacco and rich fruits. On the palate, it was seamless as it hovered over the senses with sweet and savory cherry fruit, minty herbs and minerals. Going on and on with notes of cherry pit and inner floral tones. It was flat out gorgeous, getting better with every minute spent in the glass.

Burgundy meets da Vinci. Pretty and floral with beautiful design morphed into something more muscular from meat stock city.
