Hello ,
Montosoli occupies a singular place in the history of Brunello di Montalcino.
The first vineyard in Montalcino to carry its own vineyard designation, Montosoli has long been regarded as one of the region's grand crus. Altesino's holdings on the hill have helped define the vineyard's reputation, producing Brunellos distinguished by their elegance, minerality, and unmistakable sense of place.
The estate's Montosoli bottling offers a fascinating look at how one of Montalcino's greatest sites expresses itself across different vintages. The 2017 demonstrates the vineyard's ability to excel even in challenging conditions, earning 97 points from James Suckling. The 2018 combines complexity and structure with remarkable ageworthiness, while the acclaimed 2019 captures Montosoli at its most complete, earning 97-point scores from James Suckling, Wine Advocate, Jeb Dunnuck, and Vinous.
Monica Larner describes the 2019 as possessing "a linear sense of immediacy and verticality," while James Suckling praises its "purity like a mountain stream." Together, these wines showcase why Montosoli remains one of the most sought-after vineyard sites in all of Tuscany.
This is a rare opportunity to experience Montosoli across three exceptional vintages.
