2017 Fattoria Del Pino Brunello Di Montalcino

Jessica Pellegrini of Fattoria Del Pino is a rising star in Montalcino. Her winery was born in 2000, two years after her father Nerio purchased 7 hectares of land in the Montosoli. She produces lovely wines from this small plot located in northern Montalcino. The vineyards are planted mid-hill on marl, clay, limestone and sandstone soil. She farms the vines with meticulous care and the selected grapes are hand-picked to produce graceful wines that are truly explosive. This Brunello offering certainly packs a punch with a delicate and pretty mix of dark cherries, blackberries, purple plum, earl grey tea and dried flowers with a hint of black licorice and creamy balsamic.
