Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 95
“Castello Romitorio has cool vineyard sites and is one of the few estates that performs consistently in the warmest years. That’s why the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is just so darn good. This estate has tweaked its winemaking style over the years to produce increasingly elegant and streamlined wines. There is finesse here, but you also get bold cherry fruit, moist earth, cured tobacco and grilled herb. The mouthfeel is silky and smooth, with good acidity on the close. Only 2,900 bottles were made.”
