2011 Camigliano Brunello di Montalcino Gualto

Pro Reviews

Janis Robinson (JR)

Tasted blind. Maturing mid ruby with orange rim. Stalky/grubby sour-cherry nose. Mulch! Ageing fast. Tart and at the same time evolved and with very little to say. (WS) – 23/01/2017

Wine Advocate (WA)

The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Gualto represents a return to a more austere and streamlined style. I say this after having written my review for the 2012 special Paesaggio Inatteso expression that is so much plumper and hardier in consistency. This Riserva, however, offers fine and polished aromas of wild berry, cassis and dried raspberry. There are background notes of underbrush, licorice, tar and white chocolate. There is no abruptness or sharpness to the wine, but you will recognize some of that sassy spice and edgy freshness that comes naturally in Sangiovese. – 28/09/2017

Lively bright red. Aromas of spicy red berries, mint and aromatic herbs on the nose. Then densely focused, with flavors of red cherry, smoke and cocoa. Very savory, this nicely concentrated midweight boasts good density and impressive youthful energy on the finish. Camigliano’s wines have improbe by leaps and bounds over the last five or six years, and speak clearly of a very specific, unique zone area of the Brunello production zone. – Ian D’Agata – 03/01/2017
