Siro Pacenti Brunello di Montalcino 2016

"Giancarlo Pacenti continues to make some of the most brilliant, textured wines in Montalcino and is by far the leading exponent of the modern school of Brunello di Montalcino. No other producer has succeeded in crafting wines of this much textural beauty and refinement. Over the years, Pacenti, along with the help of Bordeaux consultant Eric Boissenot has moved towards earlier blending of his wines with the goal of aging a complete blend rather than components. He is also one of the few producers who blends wines from the northern and southern zones in Montalcino for most of his wines, which is one reason he is so consistent from year to year. There is little question, the young wines here have never been better balanced and harmonious from the outset."

The 2016 Brunello Vintage showcases stunning, radiant wines. If you ever wanted a Brunello di Montalcino for your cellar to age for a few years, then buy the 2016 vintage! This vintage marks the second great year in a row for Brunello di Montalcino following the sensational 2015. “The 2016 wines are for your cellar,” said Lamberto Frescobaldi, the head of the Florentine wine family that owns Castelgiocondo, a solid Brunello di Montalcino estate. “The tannins and structure are really special.”

"I like to say that 2016 would be the greatest vintage ever for Brunello if it weren’t for the stupendous 2015. I still remember the words of Roberto Guerrini, the wizard winemaker and part owner of the small estate of Fuligni, when speaking about 2016 and 2015 in the summer of 2018: “I am almost speechless when I try to talk about these two vintages.”
