"The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino is a fascinating interpretation of Vigneti di Versante. It takes the lifted, floral, exotic nature of the vintage and marries it beautifully to Pian dell'Orino's style of finesse and refinement. Mint leaf, crushed rocks, hints of camphor and dried strawberries are complicated by suggestions of ground ginger in the glass. This is elegant and refined,...

"Rose petals with beautifully intertwined notes of chocolate and Indian spices. Among the best expressions of Asili with hard to articulate focus and elegance. Young but already showing plenty of class. Magnificent." Armit Wines

"The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino impresses straight away for its exuberance, tell-tale of the vintage: its alluring perfume and ethereal profile hide the underlying concentration and depth of this wine. A dense core of steeped violets and rose petals is wrapped around a layer of juicy, ripe wild berries and spice. The acid backbone and fine-grained, velvety tannins lifting the...

"A classic Giacosa Falletto showing real authority: concentrated and tight showing great purity. Fresh and lifted with bright aromatics. The herbal character enlivens the sip, finishing with a touch of mint and chocolate. Tannins are perfectly integrated. Great." Armit Wines

"A beautiful expression from the great Falletto vineyard in Serralunga d'Alba, a Giacosa family Monopole and with ideal South West exposure. Red cherry, blood orange and rose petal unfurl from the glass. With time this offers further nuances of leather and truffle. Distinctly grippy and mineral, this is hallmark Giacosa." Armit Wines

"With the white label, the 2019 Barolo Falletto Vigna Le Rocche is a generous and expansive wine that hits the palate from all sides. It offers lingering sensations of sweet fruit with a good amount of intensity and muscle power pushing from behind. That forward momentum is fueled by dark fruit, rusty earth, wet clay and blood orange. It shows...

“Nuances of dusty florals, rosemary, sage, clove and leather give way to dried strawberry aromas as the radiant 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigneti del Versante blossoms in the glass. It's silky-smooth and deep, displaying extraordinary elegance. Soothingly soft textures, ripe red and blue fruit notes and a kick of vibrant acidity provide fantastic energy. Sweet, crunchy tannins steadily build toward...

Gaja’s Costa Russi is usually the most aromatic and elegant of the three single vineyard wines with a finer structure. The 2014 retains its personality with an expansive bouquet of wild berries mingled with rose petals and an attractive balsamic note. Succulent and rich on the palate, it has a core of sweet red fruits with darker mulberry and blackberry...

"Take the estate 2021 above, turn up the volume, add trumpeters to sound its arrival, and roll out a red carpet on your tongue. Goodness me, this wine took my breath away. It redefines the notion of a Grand Cru wine. Perhaps we can add Ultra Grand to the vinous lexicon? This is an awe-inspiring wine, and the second ‘perfect...
