Campogiovanni Brunello di Montalcino 2013

Wine Spectator 93 points - A fruity style, boasting plum, cherry and spice aromas and flavors. Well-rounded tannins provide support and accents of iron and tobacco chime in on the long finish. Shows fine overall harmony. Best from 2021 through 2035. 7,000 cases made. -BS.June/2018

Vinous 92 points - Good full ruby-red. Ripe red cherry, leather, faded flowers, sandalwood and menthol on the nose. Nicely sweet and smooth on the palate, offering supple, ripe red berry flavors complicated by mocha and coffee. Not especially complex, but creamy, showing the suave side of Sangiovese from the warmer reaches of the Montalcino southwestern subzones of Sant’Angelo Scalo and Sant’Angelo in Colle. This strapping, large-framed Brunello finishes with polished tannins and persistent sweetness..April/2018

Wine Advocate 93 points - Made in a traditional manner with three years of aging in large Slavonian oak casks, the 2013 Brunello di Montalcino Campogiovanni is a beautifully polished and delicate wine. This vintage is also very accessible, meaning you also will be able to enjoy it in the near and medium-term. Its appearance is dark and velvety, and the bouquet opens to bold aromas of cherry and black currant. This wine also had a firmer sense of structure and texture compared to many of its peers from the vintage. This wine gives you an authentic taste of Tuscany. 85,000 bottles made..February/2018

James Suckling 94 points - Dark berry and bark aromas with hints of dark chocolate. Full body, soft and silky with juicy fruit and a savory finish. I love the mouthfeel and length of this wine. Drink in 2019..November/2017
