Lobenberg: Lisinis Riserva kommt nicht aus einer bestimmten Parzelle, sondern er ist eine Selektion der besten Trauben vom Weingut. Die Nase ist dicht und reichhaltig. Reife rote und schwarze Kirschen, saftige Pflaume. Feine Würze, Muskatnuss, frische Tabakblätter. Dann im Mund: Unvergleichbare Balance. Dennoch hat der Wein richtig Bums! Sauerkirsche, mediterrane Kräuter, auch was Ätherisches. Frische Orangenschale und herrlich duftender Waldboden. Die Tannine machen Druck, aber gehen dann in eine geniale mineralische Präzision über. Echt schicker Stoff!

Wine Spectator über: Brunello di Montalcino Riserva

-- Wine Spectator: Packed with cherry and blackberry fruit, this red is dense and a bit chunky at this stage. Mineral, earth and floral notes add depth, and this finishes with echoes of fruit and earth, plus the emergence of Tuscan scrub accents. A solid base of tannins lends support; this is balanced and built for the long haul. Best from 2027 through 2047.

Galloni über: Brunello di Montalcino Riserva

-- Galloni: The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva tempts the imagination as a mix of geranium and rose petals complement citrus-laced blackberries and hints of violet pastille. This is lifted and finessed with vibrant acidity and masses of mineral-infused red and black fruit aromas offset by a tinge of orange zest toward the close. The finish reveals its tannic and poised structure, yet it's blended with a primary concentration that adds tremendous balance as nuances of tobacco and licorice fade. Bury this deep in the cellar.

Lisa Perrotti Brown über: Brunello di Montalcino Riserva

-- Lisa Perrotti Brown: Due to reduced quantities in 2019, the Lisini family decided to sacrifice their Ugolaia bottling in order to augment the Riserva. It is a striking specimen of the balmy Sesta zone in Montalcino’s southeast. Scents of myrtle and pine infuse dark cherry and black raspberry. On the palate, iron and chestnut weave through the luscious and exotic red fruit. Equally sumptuous tannins bestow a generous sandy-textured embrace. Polished and layered with mineral depths, this already feels satisfying, but the best is yet to come.
