Natalie's Score: 91/100

A deep ruby Brunello di Montalcino produced from low-yielding Sangiovese wine grapes. Lots of bright cherry, ripe strawberry, savoury herb flavours finishing on a balsamic note. Tannins are firm and the wine would benefit from a few years in cellar. Try in 2023.

Brunello Di Montalcino food pairings: roast pork, venison stew, lamburgers.

Reviews and Ratings

From the Tuscany wine region, Col d'Orcia 2015 Brunello Di Montalcino is deep ruby in the glass. Produced from organically-grown 100% Sangiovese wine grapes. Fragrant with ripe dark cherry, iron and earthy aromas on the nose, full-bodied and juicy on the palate with dark cherry, wild berry, blackcurrant, garrigue herb and smoky flavours finishing long on the palate. Warming at 14.5% abv. Good now, better in a couple of years. Try in 2023. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
