La Mannella 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- Editors' Choice
- $47
A gorgeous Brunello, with bountiful and intense aromas of red fruit, blackberry, spice, leather and cedar wood that go on and on. The wine is pristine, chiseled and sharp—but bold and generous at the same time. There’s a touch of bitter almond followed by softer tones of red berry and spice.

La Mannella 2006 I Poggiarelli Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
Earthy overtones of wild mushroom and moist soil add pretty dimension to this classy Brunello. At the core of I Poggiarelli, however, are black fruit, sweet spice, toasted nut and long-lasting black cherry flavors.

La Mannella 2007 Riserva Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- Cellar Selection
- $110
This is an impressive riserva Brunello that shows a drinking window of 10 years or more. It feels tight and elegant, with a fine quality of fruit and bright acidity. It delivers a steady stream of cherry fruit, cassis, cola and leather-like aromas with a long, polished finish. What it lacks in richness, it makes up for in persistency and elegance.

Tight, linear and compact. Clean, crisp and precise. Small berry aromas of cassis, wild berry and cherry are framed by firm, dusty tannins and a touch of toasted oak.

La Mannella 2001 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $45
With vineyards north and southeast of Montalcino, this family-run winery is relatively new on the scene. Opens with floral and fruity intensity: ripe forest berry, blueberry, rose tea and violet and follows with cedar, leather, tobacco and mineral-like, iron notes. Silky, supple and medium-bodied. Imported by Tutto Vino.
