Donatella Cinelli Colombini Casato Prime Donne Brunello Di Montalcino 2018

"The organic Donatella Cinelli Colombini 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Prime Donne represents a special selection of Sangiovese that shows darker concentration and extra fruit weight. The wine veers toward the full-bodied side of the Brunello spectrum, offering plenty of plummy black fruit, tar, spice and soft tobacco smoke. The wine's savory component is more prominent compared to Donatella's Brunello annata. As always, this remains a wine of unique character and strength."

-94 Points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Boasts juicy, expressive black cherry and blackberry fruit, picking up accents of iron, eucalyptus and leather. Shows power and intensity, along with excellent balance and a long finish. Best from 2025 through 2043."

-94 Points, Wine Spectator

"An elegant, balanced nose has layers of umami flavor, with wild herbs, crushed rock, tar, mushrooms, balsamic vinegar and mixed spices. Deeper notes of macerated berries and dark chocolate then roll from the nose onto the palate, before a peppery finish that lingers with warmth."

-94 Points, Wine Enthusiast

"This is a delicious, complex and layered Brunello with cherries, nutmeg, licorice, dried flowers and walnuts on the nose. Firm and fine tannins give a sturdy framework to the evolving and concentrated core of fruit and spice. Powerful and seductive."
