Sweet red berries, flowers, mint, spices and aniseed are uniquely interwoven in this generous wine. The wine gains volume and depth in the glass as the flavours build to an unexpected crescendo. This is an exceptionally well-balanced and finesse-rich Brunello full of character, freshness and originality. The tannins remain firm, but there is enough density and complexity to the fruit that opening a bottle, even at a young age, gives no cause for regret. SUPERIORE.DE

"This is another very elegant expression of a sunny vintage that successfully focuses on a bright, fruit-driven drinking style. The Fuligni 2020 Brunello di Montalcino shows aromas of dark fruits, spruce cones, wild flowers and light spices. It gently envelops the palate with an elegant, medium-weight texture." Wine Advocate

"Seductive and sensual, this beauty exudes pressed dark flowers and all-encompassing Asian spices. Chestnuts and bitter roots counterbalance the sweet, glossy fruit that spreads across the palate. Long, chalky tannins wrap around the core of red cherry, which becomes increasingly dense, and a steely acidity cleanses the mouth." Decanter

"Smoky woods, dried flowers and earthy notes, then cherries and red berries. Liquorice roots are also present. The multi-layered fruit profile leads to a medium-bodied palate with additional roasted flavours. The firm, velvety tannins reveal a slightly bitter note on the finish, which is balanced out by the fruit and acidity. A powerful wine with plenty of character. Try it from 2026 onwards." James Suckling

"The Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is rich and voluptuous in the glass. It smells of autumnal spices, crushed raspberries, shaved cedar and dusty rose. It also impresses with a core of ripe red berry fruit that is deeply saturating and has a pleasing inner sweetness balanced by a savoury core of minerality. The 2020 leaves a high primary concentration on the palate with tart cranberry and liquorice notes and grippy tannins, while retaining a remarkable freshness. The 2020 feels spacious and has a skilful balance." Vinous
