The 1997 Brunello di Montalcino from Sesti is a significant expression of Sangiovese, produced in a vintage recognised for its quality in Tuscany. This wine exemplifies Sesti’s commitment to traditional winemaking methods, overseen by Giugi Sesti and his daughter, Elisa. It displays a distinctive profile featuring aromas of herbs, spices and dark fruits, coupled with a mid-palate of earthy notes and subtle oak. The wine’s structure is defined by its firm tannins and balanced acidity, suggesting a capacity for further ageing.

Vinous
Penetrating ruby, with a garnet core. Gorgeous nose combines sandalwood, clove, lavender and mint, plus a whiff of pipe tobacco. Vibrant flavors of marzipan, cocoa and vanilla are quite concentrated and beautifully delineated. Deep, sensuous, generous and compelling. Long finish features suave tannins and a lingering sensation of candied fruits. A remarkable Brunello. Edward Beltrami1st July 2002
