Kerin O’Keefe Notes

98 Points, Kerin O'Keefe, www.kerinokeefe.com: "The 2019 straight Brunello from Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona is a beauty, starting with its heady scents of red berry, dog rose, spice and Mediterranean scrub. Full-bodied and loaded with finesse, the smooth palate delivers juicy red cherry, cracked peppercorn and licorice alongside tightly-woven, refined tannins. Juicy acidity keeps it balanced and fresh. Drink 2027–2039." 09/23

Gardini Notes

97+ Points, Luca Gardini, Gardini Notes: "A compact Brunello from Ciacci Piccolomini. The olfaction opens on notes of cranberry, then marjoram and hints of eucalyptus. Juicy and taut drinkability, sapid tannins, closes with a return of small fruits and balsamic sensations." 10/23

Wine Advocate Notes

95 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate: "There's no mistaking this wine for anything but Brunello. The Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona 2019 Brunello di Montalcino shows beautiful continuity, crescendoing on the nose and palate in synchronicity. There are aromas of grilled watermelon, red cherry, garden herb and violet, and there is a charred note that recalls the toasted oak. The bouquet balances out beautifully, but you do get considerably more power on the palate thanks to the oomph of 15% alcohol and young tannins that get under your gums. Give this wine a few more years of bottle age. " 12/23

James Suckling Notes

94 Points, James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com: " Sour cherries with stone and bark undertones to the aromas. Medium body, firm tannins and a long, linear finish that ends tight. But this will soften with some age. Subtle bark and dried mushroom character at the end. Drink after 2025, but already pretty."
