Brunello di Montalcino Silvio Nardi 2016 (750ML)

95+ points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: “The Tenute Silvio Nardi 2016 Brunello di Montalcino makes a big impact in the glass thanks to its dark color saturation and the pretty intensity of its aromas that range from dark fruit and plum to soft potting soil and grilled herb. You get beautiful balance here, even more so when you allow the bottle to breathe for a few hours. A twofold delivery of freshness and tannic backbone gives the wine the DNA required to hold 10 years or more.” 11/20

95 Points, James Suckling: "A creamy and juicy Brunello with dried-berry, peach and dusty-earth character. It’s full-bodied, chewy and very intense. Lots of fruit, yet reserved and toned with tannins that stay with you throughout. Give it at least three of four years to open. Try after 2024." 11/20

96+ points, Luca Gardini, Gardini Notes: “Nose of great character: plum jam, cinnamon, a hint of star anise on the finish. The mouth is dense, thick and equally juicy with fruity return. Pleasant and long persistence.” 10/20
