Talentis Riserva is a barrel selection that is aged for 36 months in a combination of 25 and 20 hectolitre oak barrels and a small amount in tonneaux. Pian di Conte 2019 is a classic, stately wine with lots of dark fruits, dried blackberries, spices, tobacco and mentholated herbs. The palate is polished and elegant with sweet plums, cherries and blackberries on the attack. These sweet fruit nuances are followed by spicy cedar wood and campfire flavours, as well as fine tannins and an almost endless depth. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Talenti 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pian di Conte has a dark garnet red colour and is characterised by high concentration and a spicy fruit profile with cooked plums and dried tobacco. Sangiovese always has an earthy side with some pressed flowers, and you get those flavours here. It finishes with fine-meshed tannins that give it more accessibility overall." Wine Advocate

"The Riserva takes its name from the hamlet of Pian di Conte, where the winery is located, near Sant'Angelo in Colle. It is made from the oldest vineyards on the estate - three plots surrounding the wine cellar - and is another barrel selection from these vineyards. The wine is very expressive, with aromas of mint, tarragon and aniseed, reminiscent of the dusty, unpaved roads of the region. Subtle woody spices and cedar wood blend harmoniously. On the palate, it is juicy and tangy, with concentrated wild berries. Yet it is relatively light, perhaps due to the lively acidity and refined, seamless tannins." Decanter

"A restrained and floral wine with elegant, defined fruit. It shows cherries, raspberries and a lively, earthy minerality as well as cinnamon and rhubarb in the depths. On the palate, it is full-bodied and shines with brightness and clarity of flavour, fresh with crisp acidity and velvety tannins. Spicy. Drinkable now, but with great potential for the long haul." James Suckling

"The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Pian di Conte 2019 is intense, with a burst of split pine, cedar shavings, dried flowers and mentholated herbs forming its smoky bouquet. The palate is enveloped by a silky texture and ripe wild berries that take on a beautiful depth and flinty mineral concentration on the finish. Sweet tannins frame the experience, while the 2019 contrasts with a spicy hint of violet pastilles and tart cranberries on the finish. The 2019 still needs some cellaring time to develop, but it is a wonderful interpretation of the Pian di Conte." Vinous
