Talenti Brunello di Montalcino 2004
Varietal: Sangiovese (Grosso)
Region: Toscana
As one of the founding fathers of Brunello di Montalcino, Piero Talenti's wines have resisted the trend of new wood and jammy extraction. Moreover, they demonstrate great complexity and finesse rather than simple impact. Now under the hands of Riccardo Talenti, the estate has modernized and improved the wines without upsetting the family style. The Pian di Conte estate has a wonderful south-facing site about 400 meters above sea level opposite the village of Sant'Angelo in Colle. Talenti maintains an extremely low yield and thereby produces excellent wines with annual regularity. The 2004 is a particularly soft, bewitching Brunello, ample with dark fruits, and touched by tar, leather and herbs. Drinking now until 2014.
About the Producer
As one of the founding fathers of Brunello di Montalcino, Piero Talenti’s wines have resisted the trend of new wood and jammy extraction as well. Instead, they demonstrate great complexity and finesse rather than simple impact. Now under the hands of Riccardo Talenti the estate has taken on some modernization that has improved the wines without upsetting the family style. The Pian di Conte estate has a wonderful site about 400 meters above sea level opposite the village of Sant'Angelo in Colle. Its vines, head-trained, face south-south-west and yield about a kilogramme and a half per plant. Thanks to this extremely low yield the Talenti label produces excellent wines with annual regularity. |
