Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna delle Raunate Mocali 2010 (95JS/95WA) (750ML)

"95 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: ""This is Mocali's top shelf wine. The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna delle Raunate shows a higher dose of power and overall determination compared to the annata versions of this single-vineyard Sangiovese. That extra year of aging before the wine is released as a Riserva has gone a long way to flesh out and build the momentum of this brawny Brunello. Because the bouquet is so forceful, the mouthfeel feels weightless and streamlined in comparison. That contrast makes this wine very interesting. I would suggest opening this bottle after 2018."" 03/16"

"93 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media: ""The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna delle Raunate is a very nice wine. Sweet tobacco, cedar, scorched earth, spice, pepper and leather are some of the many aromas and flavors that make an appearance. Deceptively medium in body and translucent, the 2010 Riserva packs a serious punch, with savory, peppery notes that add attractive aromatic overtones throughout."" 02/16"

"95 Points, James Suckling: ""A ripe and intense riserva Brunello showing spices, dark berries and fresh mushrooms. Full-bodied with round and velvety tannins that make this very long and rich. Powerful finish but harmonious and beautiful."" 10/15"

"94 Points, Wine Spectator Insider: ""Black cherry and black currant flavors take on underbrush, mineral and tar notes in this powerful, concentrated Brunello. Balanced and densely structured."" Vol 12, No 14, 04/06"
