Wine Spectator: 90
This red delivers an intense beam of cherry and red berry fruit notes, shaded by tobacco, sanguine and leafy vegetal flavors. Has a bright structure, but finishes on the dry side, revealing a spicy aftertaste. Best from 2025.
Wine Advocate: 92
The Talenti 2017 Brunello di Montalcino shows a lot of soft and ripe fruit with blackberry and cherry confit at the front. Spice, leather, crushed flower and potting soil follow in due course and so does the wine's impactful 15% alcohol.
James Suckling: 93
Dark-berry and cherry character with bark and mahogany in both the nose and palate. It’s full-bodied with integrated tannins. Linear and tight with a long finish. Needs time to open and soften. Try after 2023.
