Talenti Brunello Offer 2026

The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino is darkly perfumed, evolving with nuances of dried rose, sage, cedar shavings and balsamic-tinged black cherries. It is beautifully balanced with silken depths of ripe red and blue fruits elevated by cooling acidity and a slightly spicy twang toward the close. The sweetest tannins imaginable frame the finish as this tapers off structured and long yet still perfumed and pleasurable. There's a lovely harmony here that keeps me coming back to the glass, even as the 2021 requires extensive cellaring. (95) ANTONIO GALLONI

Aromas of lavender, eucalyptus, red berry and tobacco form the nose. A beautiful wine, the palate delivers ripe wild cherry, crushed raspberry, cinnamon and star anise alongside a backbone of velvety tannins. Fresh acidity and spiced orange peel lift the finish. Balance. (96) KERIN OKEEFE

Powerful, bright ruby with a pronounced garnet rim. Very fragrant and clear on the nose, fine raspberry and fresh cherry, some rosemary in the background. Juicy and with present ripe fruit on the palate, crisp, opens up with fine-meshed tannins, firm pressure on the finish. FALSTAFF

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pian di Conte is intense, with a burst of split pine, cedar shavings, dried flowers and mentholated herbs forming its smoky bouquet. This envelops the palate with silky textures and ripe wild berry fruits, taking on a flinty-mineral concentration that adds lovely depth toward the close. Sweet tannins frame the experience as the 2019 finishes with a spicy twang as hints of violet pastille and tart cranberry contrast through the finish. The 2019 demands further cellaring to come together, but it's a gorgeous interpretation of Pian di Conte. (97) ANTONIO GALLONI

The 2019 Pian di Conte Riserva is a fantastic wine, boasting intensity, structure and finesse. It starts off with enticing aromas of ripe black-skinned fruit, violet, eucalyptus and dark spice that on the palate transform into ripe Marasca cherry, spiced plum, licorice, blood orange and mocha. Firm, close-grained tannins provide the backbone while fresh acidity keeps it well balanced (98) KERIN OKEEFE
