| Notes | |||
| "100% Sangiovese from calcareous clay soils. Fermentation and maceration on the skins occurs over the course of 15 days in steel vats. Aged in medium size (30 hl) oak casks for 36 months followed by 12 months in glazed cement vats, plus 4 months in bottle. 375 cases produced each year on average." —importer |
| Critical Acclaim | |||
| "The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino smolders up from the glass to offer a dark yet perfumed display of dusty dried roses, giving way to nuances of cherry and lavender. This is a savory yet polished effort, with velvety waves washing across a medium-bodied frame, along with densely packed red and black fruits that evolve into purple-tinged inner florals, and exotic spices that last well through the finale. The tannins are sweet and rounded and, while structured, the expression remains remarkably fresh, leaving behind a lasting nuance of violet candies. This is a wonderfully pretty and delicate interpretation of the 2017 vintage." —Vinous "The Podere Scopetone 2017 Brunello di Montalcino brings forth lifted aromas of red rose, potting soil, dark spice and mid-summer cherry or blackberry. Despite the heat the vintage, the wine walks a fine line between balance and power, but it doesn't feel too heavy or extracted in terms of structure. Production is 5,800 bottles." —Wine Advocate "A warm and chewy 2017 with plum, walnut and berry character and hints of coffee. It’s full and tannic, but remains soft and attractive. A couple of years will soften this. Try after 2024." —James Suckling |
