Conti Costanti Brunello di Montalcino 2017
Conti Costanti is one of the three "founding fathers" of Brunello di Montalcino and, with Barbi, the only one still owned by the same family. The barely 10ha vineyard, entirely biodynamic, is located just outside the town on the southern slope. Without much fuss, some of Montalcino's finest wines are made here year after year. After manual harvest, the grapes are completely de-risked and fermented in steel cuves. The Brunello matures in large 30hl and 5hl barrels for 3 years. The results are particularly great Brunello's in a complex, structured style , with slightly more roundness that makes them a little more approachable than those from Biondi-Santi. Costanti's Brunello's have always been among the best in the region, and especially in the last decade Andrea and his team have been making truly great wines!
Wine Enthousiast (Kerin O'Keefe): "Extremely elegant and focused, this compelling wine defies the heat of the vintage, starting with a heady fragrance of ripe dark-skinned berries, violet, camphor, dark spice and whiffs of crushed herbs. On the linear, elegantly structured palate, tightly woven but extremely polished tannins accompany juicy Marasca cherry, blood orange, licorice and white pepper while fresh acidity keeps it balanced and fresh." 97/100
"Conti Costanti makes lovely wines that I would characterize as being on the darker and more concentrated side of the Brunello style spectrum. This is especially true with this set of new releases."
