Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 93
"The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino is darkly alluring, with an earthy blend of crushed rocks and flowery underbrush, giving way to steeped plums and violet florals. This sweeps across the palate with juicy textures as exotic spices and crisp red fruits slowly saturate. The 2019 finishes long and staining, with crunchy tannins that frame the experience well without slowly its momentum as an air of lavender fades over a staining of black licorice." -Eric Guido

Decanter

D 93
"An under-the-radar estate, La Serena is located directly east of the town of Montalcino. The organically cultivated vineyards sit at 400 metres on calcareous-rich clay with a southeastern exposition. The classy 2019 wafts with fragrant balsam wood, pressed rose and allspice. Fully packed and energetic, the palate shows impressive purity of spicy dark cherry with pleasantly puckering acidity. Chalky textured tannins are on the right side of extraction, building in power as they coat the mouth. This needs some time to temper."

Wine Spectator

WS 95
"There's a fruity side to this red as well as a spicy side, with cherry, strawberry and black pepper flavors throughout. Floral, iron and underbrush accents add depth, yet it's the beam of pure cherry that prevails. Shows prodigious length on the finish. Best from 2027 through 2043."

Wine Enthusiast

WE 94
"The nose is savory and earthy, with underbrush, balsamic and mushroom, then a note of coffee with a hint of vanilla cream adds sweetness. Exuberant, but still crunchy notes of wild cherries and strawberries lead the palate, while the savory earthiness barely lingers in the background." -Danielle Callegari
