    The Cotarella family's Le Macioche Brunello 2020 shows balance and character, opening with bright cherry fruit, menthol, balsamic herbs, minerals and soft earthy tones. On the palate, the wine unfolds with lightness, silky and refined, with a pure presentation of ripe red berries accompanied by violet-coloured flowers and a hint of leather. Although grippy and structured, it remains energetic and fresh on the final, leaving a hint of violets and lavender. SUPERIORE.DE

    "The Brunello di Montalcino 2020 comes from 25-year-old vines, trained in Guyot. It shows an initial mineral note of crushed aspirin from Galestro soils, which sets the tone for elegant fruit and lightly toasted spices. This vintage offers a medium to full-bodied texture with soft tannins and lingering dark cherry flavours." Wine Advocate

    "Rich and intense, the 2020 Brunello di Montalcino opens with a burst of crushed rocks, grilled herbs, brown spices and floral underbrush. It is velvety and seamless, with soft textures and ripe red berry fruits that gain tension towards the finish, while notes of sour citrus and a hint of dark chocolate add excitement. The 2020 is pleasantly full-bodied and long, leaving edgy tannins and a certain primary concentration without sacrificing freshness. This is one of the more structured and inward Brunellos of the vintage, with the balance to evolve beautifully." Vinous

    "It has a nice firmness yet exudes juicy plum fruit, along with undertones of chocolate and orange. Medium body, creamy texture and delicious finish. Needs another two or three years to develop. Drinkable after 2027, but already lush and lively now." James Suckling
