About Renieri 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva
The Renieri estate is located in the southern part of Montalcino on high altitude slopes. Owner/Winemaker Marco Bacci puts intense focus on his vineyards to produce the best possible fruit. His 70 acres of vines face southeast to southwest at around 1,200 above sea level. These high-altitude vines are planted in uniquely diverse, iron-rich soil that's rare for this region. High density plantings are utilized to create extremely low yields.
The low-yield fruit is deeply flavored, and in an outstanding vintage like this 2015 brings bold character and intensity to long aged Riserva.
James Suckling scored this 97 points saying "Dried strawberries, rose petals and toasted almonds give this elegant complexity. This is rich and flavorful with red berries, roses and toasted hazelnuts, but remains reserved at the same time. Full-bodied with a driven combination of fruit, ultra-fine tannins and brisk acidity at the finish. Try after 2024."
