The wines of the Salvioni family are the embodiment of what makes Brunello so unique. From the vineyard to the final bottling, everything is done by hand. These wines are closer to Piedmonte and Burgundy than Brunello di Montalcino. The grapes spend two to four weeks on the skins and spend four years in cask with no fining or filtration. The 2004 is a fine example of their magical wines, incredibly complex with lifted aromatics and fresh purity of fruit. With just under four hectares of fruit, production is limited and bottlings are hard to come by.

Salvioni's 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is just as dazzling as it has always been. Rich, layered and wonderfully expressive, the 2004 remains one of the very best wines I have tasted at this small, family-run estate in the center of town. Cedar, smoke, tobacco and a host of dark stone fruit notes develop in the glass, but above all else, the 2004 is a wine of striking texture and breed. Antonio Galloni1st October 2016

Salvioni’s 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is made in a style that brilliantly reconciles a modern approach in the vineyards (tiny yields, full phenolic ripeness) with a traditional approach to winemaking (long macerations, cask aging). An explosive, super-ripe wine, this Brunello flows from the glass with mesmerizing richness and stunning balance. The gorgeous red fruit carries through all the way to the finish, where flowers, tobacco and spices add further complexity. In many ways, Salvioni’s Brunello di Montalcino is the region’s equivalent to Giacomo Conterno’s Barolo Cascina Francia, a wine with which it shares many attributes. Simply put, this is a gem from Giulio Salvioni, and it is not to missed! Anticipated maturity. 2012-2024.
