Nicely balanced and assembled, this bright riserva opens with plump dark fruit, leather, tobacco, smoke and barbecue sauce. The wine shows a large, cheerful personality with polished tannins and lingering endnotes of spice and dark chocolate.  — M.L.  (5/1/2013)

San Filippo di Giannelli 2007 Le Lucére Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $60
Loads of balsam intensity and an array of dried herb, red fruit, wild berry, cedar wood and forest floor aromas. It’s very full and generous in the mouth, with firm, but polished tannin.  — M.L.  (5/1/2012)

San Filippo di Giannelli 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $45
Dark fruit and fresh oak tones still need time to integrate—give this Brunello a few more years of bottle age. Chocolate, exotic spice, cherry, blackberry, leather and pipe tobacco on the nose; smooth berry richness and a tight, firm feel in the mouth.  — M.L.  (5/1/2012)

San Filippo di Giannelli 2008 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $39
This Brunello shows an austere and sophisticated side with dusty tertiary aromas of leather, old spice, pressed rose and dried berry fruit like currants or cranberries. There’s a bit of snap or bite to the mouthfeel with lingering tones of cola, citrus and ginger.  — M.L.  (5/1/2013)

  1. $60
Dark extraction and concentrated fruit set the stage. The wine has soft touches of blackberry fruit and plump cherry that are inevitably followed by tight tannins and sharp acidity. This is an astringent, firm wine that should be paired with fatty foods.  — M.L.  (5/1/2013)

San Filippo di Giannelli 2001 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $56
The pleasure factor is cut somewhat short by abrupt sour cranberry and apple cider that overrides blueberry, spicy herbal and menthol notes. Lean and exceedingly tart in the mouth.  — W.E.  (4/1/2006)
