Bira WInes Nicolo Brunetto Valle de Uco 2021 750ml

Expert Reviews

Wine Enthusiast  91 Ponts | This is a lively Sangiovese that opens with fruity and spicy aromas of ripe berries and a touch of aniseed. Focused acidity runs through the palate that holds concentrated notes of cranberry, cherry and pink pepper. Margherita or pepperoni pizza will pair wonderfully with this vibrant red. (2021). 

Vinous 93 Points | The 2021 Nicolò Brunetto is a blend of 80% Sangiovese co-fermented with equal portions of Syrah and Merlot from the Uco Valley. Aged for 12 months in French barrels (one-fifth new), it's garnet-red with a cherry sheen. The nose offers faint oaky notes, mushrooms and undergrowth against a sour cherry backdrop. Tart and dry in the mouth, it establishes a delicate tension between the reactive tannins and high acidity, resulting in a layered palate in which the oak plays a supporting role. This is a long-lasting red wine that pays homage to Tuscany. (2021).

James Suckling 93 Points | A fragrant nose with wild berries, currants, dried herbs, potpourri and nutmeg. It’s medium-bodied with finely grained tannins. Poised and layered with bright acidity bringing a succulent, sour cherry character to the palate. Long and developing finish. Drink or hold.
