Campogiovanni’s vineyards are sited onthe South quadrant of the Montalcino hill, where weather conditions and a particular combination of soils favour optimal ripening of the Sangiovese grosso grape. Campogiovanni Brunello is absolutely classic in style, ageing three years in Slavonian oak casks and in 500-litre tonneaux, then another 12 months in the bottle. It is recognised for its finesse and for its longevity.
TASTING NOTES
Intense ruby red colour. Aroma: ripe forest fruits, blackberry conserve and notes of tobacco and leather. Broad, soft and persistent on the palate, with a spirit-steeped fruit finish. Red meats, game, wild boar dishes, mature pecorino cheeses.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
JS92, James Suckling
"Lots of dried roses with cherries, plums and hints of figs. Full-bodied and layered, yet the tannins are relatively polished. Structured and rich. Try after 2024."
RP92, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The 2017 Brunello di Montalcino shows volume and girth with dark fruit aromas of black cherry and plum. The warmth of the vintage is reflected in the softness of the fruit and the supple texture delivered to the palate. On a second wave, this Brunello exhibits sweet spice, earth and crushed flowers. Unlike some of its peers that show astringent tannins, this wine is virtually seamless in terms of mouthfeel. It offers a soft approach overall, with medium length and intensity. This 95,000-bottle release shows a rather lean finish."
