Located in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, Sesta di Sopra pursues a traditional approach to making its Brunello, which was one of the most pleasant discoveries of my tastings of the 2001 vintage. The vines are still young, and there is much to look forward to in future years from this producer. The pretty 2001 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a delicate, expressive nose of flowers and spices. It displays attractive juiciness and length on the palate, with sweet notes of macerated cherries and tobacco supported by a medium bodied frame, with fine, silky tannins and a long, satisfying finish. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2021. Various American importers, including: Premier Wine Company, Richmond, CA; tel. (???) ???-????, and Dal Imports, New York, NY; tel. (???) ???-????

This is really serious, with a wonderful complexity of ripe fruit, licorice and cedar. Full-bodied, with ultrafine tannins and a long finish. Wood is dominating now but it's a beauty. One of the new garage wines in the region. Best after 2010. 330 cases made, 200 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
