Giacomo Neri has produced a very approachable wine in this warm vintage. The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino is plump and juicy with loads of dark fruit and mild spice at the back. It doesn't have the depth or complexity of the gorgeous 2010 vintage, but the wine does a very good job presenting the main traits you look for in Brunello. The fruit is lively and the acidity gives the wine a sense of buoyancy and brightness. The tannins are very well integrated - a good Brunello - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate.

Vinification:

The Brunello (Sangiovese) grapes are hand-picked from 27 September to 5 October from the Fiesole, Poderuccio and Podernuovo vineyards. The grapes are selected several times; firstly in the vineyard, on the selection table at the winery where the bunches are de-stemmed and the individual grapes are chosen. Fermentation without addition of yeasts and maceration in open temperature-controlled conical vats for 3 to 4 weeks. The Brunello is aged in oak barrels for about 42 months and 6 months bottles in bottle.
