Very rare Brunello masterpiece from the sun-drenched 5-star 2015 vintage, which is only produced in absolutely exceptional years and only in very small quantities (just under 7,500 bottles). 

Roman Rüdisühli: The grapes are rigorously selected and come from the oldest plots not far from the Castello. Noble, expressive nose, radiates a cosy warmth, ripe but extremely delicate primary fruit aromas. Red and black berry fruit components, hints of violets, rose petals, fresh blackberries, dark cherries, a touch of chocolate, cedar and some smoke. The Riserva is stunningly elegant, sensual and profound with perfect balance and an almost unbelievable aromatic intensity. Romitorio's Riserva is not a screamer, yet it amazes with sublime power and fabulous refinement. Wonderfully velvety tannins lay themselves across the palate, a wine full of grace and gracefulness.

Toscana Rosso IGT

This is an exceptional wine that completely thrilled us right from the start! The grapes of the unusual but absolutely convincing blend of Syrah and Petit Verdot come from the southern Maremma, where father and son Chia realised early on that the two varieties really blossom in the coastal climate of Tuscany. While the Syrah brings in the spicy intensity, the Petit Verdot provides density and structure. Muscular, very expressive wine with lots of dark and slightly sweet fruit (blackberry, ripe plum), but also with spicy notes such as cedar wood, barbecue herbs or tar. Long, full-bodied finish. Already great fun, but can also be safely left in the cellar. Definitely has what it takes to be a crowd favourite!

By the way: the 2016 received an outstanding 95 points from Parker's Wine Advocate!

2016 Filo di Seta

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

5L (OWC-1)

 

Inquire for this Wine.

Roman Rüdisühli: While the already brilliant 2015 Filo di Seta narrowly missed the maximum score, we have no choice with the brilliant 2016: a well-deserved 20 points for one of the best Brunellos of the vintage! An absolute picture-book Brunello from the somewhat cooler single vineyard Filo di Seta (Silk Thread), named after a stream that flows through a forest in the immediate vicinity. The nose alone is a dream - incredibly fresh, beautifully perfumed and wonderfully complex. Very floral (peonies), some hay, ripe sour cherries, plums, cloves, a touch of incense, new leather, musk and bourbon vanilla. On the palate, the Filo di Seta is powerful with an extremely elegant texture and silky fine, polished tannins. Compared to the basic Brunello, it appears much more masculine and taut. The single vineyard is expressed to the highest degree: Sangiovese complexity at its finest, paired with impressive depth. It's all still incredibly primary, but nevertheless already extremely enjoyable. The wood is perfectly integrated and the finish is great with fantastic length. You can only guess what a sensational wine experience awaits you after a few years of ageing.

Grappa

In Monferrato, in Piemont, surrounded by a hilly landscape, is the home of Distillerie Berta. The landscape seems completely untouched here. The distillery was founded in 1947 by Paolo Berta. In 2002, a spacious new building with barrique cellar and new steel tanks as well as state-of-the-art communication technology was inaugurated.

Structured on the nose with enveloping aromas of cocoa and cherry. The impression on the nose is amply confirmed on the palate. A classic with a powerful bouquet and a long finish.
