Opinions sur 2021 Brunello Vigna Del Suolo (1,5L)

Eric Guido, Vinous: 95

"The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Del Suolo is a spice box on the nose, blending lavender, violet pastille, crushed black cherries and allspice. It's soothingly round, more savory than sweet, with mineral-infused red berry fruits and rosy inner florals. Long and staining, the 2021 leaves a saturation of primary concentration as fine-grained tannins add a classically dry sensation."

"This is Argiano's flagship wine from a single vineyard with 65-year-old vines. The 2021 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna del Suolo offers beautiful definition in terms of the brightness of its aromas and its layered complexity. You get more phenolic structure and oak rendering that adds depth. It closes with sweet tannins, delivering power and intensity in a limited release of just 3,154 bottles."

Michaela Morris, Decanter: 96

"Above ground, Vigna del Suolo doesn't look much different from the surrounding plots on Argiano's extensive plateau. Below ground, however, it is distinguished by a distinctive limestone-rich vein. And, in 2021, those 65-plus-year-old vines amp up the volume. Exotic spice notes of nutmeg, cardamom and coriander soar from the glass. The red cherry depth just about reaches its tipping point of concentration before citrusy, blood-orange acidity penetrates the core. Plush tannins girdle, ultimately cinching tightly. Cocoa tinges the finish with pleasant bitterness."
