2019 Siro Pacenti Pelagrilli Brunello di Montalcin

97 Points – Wine Spectator: Packed with vivid black cherry, black currant and plum fruit, as well as iron, sanguine and tobacco accents, this red shows some power and tension, but also grace and balance. The lingering aftertaste features bright, ripe fruit and wild herbs. Best from 2027 through 2043.

96+ Points – Luca Gardini: The northeast quadrant of the hill, the beautiful sustainable project by Siro Pacenti, labels of rare reliability as confirmed by this reference, the product of the youngest vines. Black cherry on the nose, nuances of wild mint and white pepper. Intense sip, iodized, with a return of sweet spices.
