Description
The best internal selection of Sangiovese grapes produced on the estate are dedicated to this wine, the cuttings of which were originally selected from very old neighbouring vineyards. Planted in 1986 on Montalcino’s southern slopes, Sesti’s 13 hectares are freshened by an eastward tilt, constant breezes and surrounding woodlands.
THE WINE ADVOCATE 93 points: "Drinking Window: 2021 - 2035
"The Sesti 2015 Brunello di Montalcino offers rich texture and shapely fruit flavors with plenty of forest berry, cherry, spice and potting soil. This Brunello opens to a very smooth, almost glossy texture with tannins that have already integrated at the five-year point following the harvest. That aged smoothness and silkiness gives this wine immediate appeal. The oak feels well integrated within the more opulent texture of the fruit."
This is a library release stock from Sesti's cellars (March 2025)
