Vinous (95)The nose is dark, showing an alluring richness, as black cherry airs out to give way to fresher notes of strawberry, with hints of brown spices and lifting notes of wild brush and herbs. On the palate, depths of black fruit and spice are carried on textures that feel like pure silk, as dark spices and inner florals amass. The finish reveals the wine’s hulking structure, yet it is balanced by zesty acids with lingering wild berry fruits, saline minerals, and a hint of citrus and spice. The 2015 single-vineyard Brunello di Montalcino Manachiara displays wonderful balance, perfect oak management (it was aged in a combination of French Allier Barrique and botti), and is built for the long haul. |

Wine Advocate (95+)Made from the estate's oldest vines, the 2010 Brunello di Montalcino is a bold and powerful wine that shows enormous precision and grit. On the Brunello scale, this expression from Siro Pacenti offers more dark fruit, plum, spice, tar and smoke. The wine reveals beautiful density and an important mouthfeel that hits the palate with seductive determination. This wine is holding up beautifully since I tasted it last and has even improved in terms of its complexity and overall elegance. It still has a long way to go. |

Vinous (91)Balsam herbs, macerated black cherries, mocha, pine shavings and a cooling whiff of mint make the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Pelagrilli impossible to ignore. This is soft-textured and vibrant in character, with tart wild berries and savory spices energized by zesty acids and hints of sour citrus. It leaves a concentration of violet and lavender-tinged black fruits to resonate over a coating of sweet tannins, finishing incredibly long and structured. While the 2017 may not possess the contours and concentration that I’ve come to know from Pelagrilli, I can’t help but admire it for its verve and balance. |

Vinous (95)Rich and heady in the glass, the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva PS smolders up with a captivating mix of plum sauce, grilled sage, crushed rocks and a dusting of savory spice. Its velvety textures soothe the palate, nearly creamy in feel, while ushering in a wave of ripe red and black fruits complicated by saline-mineral tones that add an almost-crunchy feel toward the close. This remains structured and youthfully dry, with super-fine tannins that saturate, along with a tart wild berry concentration and subtle nuances of tangerine. Keep the 2012 buried deep for at least another few years, as this serious wine has a story that only time will tell. The PS hails from a 1.5-hectares parcel in the oldest part of the Pelagrilli vineyards in the Northeast of Montalcino. |

Vinous (94)Dark cherries, cloves and dusty rose lift up from the aromatically stunning 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva PS. This gains in depth and richness with time in the glass, as hints of plum sauce and sage evolve. You can feel the sheer weight of the old vines here, soaking the palate with velvety depths of spicy red and black fruits, but with a cooling wave of minty herbs. Soft, sweet tannins gain a salty and very mineral twang under an air of savory herbs and tobacco, showing incredibly long and structured yet massively dark, like a black hole of concentration. Frankly, I underestimated this wine the last time I tasted it, and I am happy to upgrade my score. |
