Energy defines the 2020 Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino, with vivid red cherry and raspberry fruit edged by peach skin, sweet spice and a lift of fresh herbs over a supple, medium-plus body. The tannins are fine but assertive enough to frame the juicy core, and a tangy, almost citrusy snap on the finish keeps everything mouthwatering and precise. It’s a charismatic, slightly wild Brunello that combines ripe richness with notable freshness and tension.

Uccelliera’s Brunello di Montalcino is a 100% Sangiovese bottling from Andrea Cortonesi’s vineyards in Castelnuovo dell’Abate (150–350m elevation) in the warm, southern sector of Montalcino; planted on calcareous‑clayey, stony soils, the wine is typically concentrated and spicy with red‑berry and Mediterranean herb notes, a mineral spine and well‑integrated oak (French and Slavonian casks) that yield plush texture, vivid acidity and long, refined tannins—a distinctive, terroir‑driven Brunello made in small production.
