Conti Costanti Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 1.5L

Conti Costanti Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 is an exceptional expression of Sangiovese from one of Montalcino’s historic estates. Produced only in outstanding vintages, this Riserva showcases the depth, structure, elegance, and remarkable aging potential of the 2016 vintage.

The wine opens with an intense bouquet of violet, woodland berries, dark cherry, new leather, forest floor, and warm spices. On the palate, layers of black-skinned berries, red plum, blood orange, licorice, tobacco, and subtle coffee are framed by bright acidity and refined, fine-grained tannins. The finish is long, mineral-driven, savory, and beautifully structured.

The 2016 Riserva received 100 points from Wine Enthusiast and 98 points from Decanter and Vinous, making it a standout choice for collectors of classic Brunello. Decanter notes that the wine possesses the structure and length to develop for well over two decades.
