Bonacchi 2007 Molino della Suga Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
A huge difference from last vintage, this is soft, supple, dense and enduring, with loads of fruit intensity and a plush, spicy richness. Black fruit, rum cake, cherry liqueur and smoked bacon on the close. Modern, bold and very bright.

Casalino’s Brunello is a dark, pleasurable wine enhanced by warm richness, mineral notes, toasted almond and sweet black cherry. The general smoothness and fullness of the texture is what sets this wine apart.

Bonacchi 2005 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
Ripe berry fruit and plump tones of cherry liqueur, blackberry and cassis open the nose of this dark and concentrated Brunello. There’s also a hint of wet earth or wild mushroom and the wine is rich and smooth on the finish, with tart cherry flavors.

Bonacchi 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
Big and bold, but a bit disjointed aromatically. Ripe fruit and pipe tobacco vie with a fine note of graphite or lead pencil. It seems soft, with a touch of sweetness, but crisp tannins. Give it a few more years to unwind. Finishes thick and chewy.

Bonacchi 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Rosso di Montalcino)
- Online Exclusive
Here’s a very nice Rosso di Montalcino that is enhanced by sweet oak tones of spice, leather and dark tobacco. The wood element is noticeable but it doesn’t mask the fresh fruit tones of cherry and red currant. Drink this wine with wild mushroom risotto.

Bonacchi 2006 Molino della Suga Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $40
Elegant but still holding back aromatically, this Brunello opens with notes of cassis and dried raspberry followed by subtle shading of spice and smoke. The mouthfeel is thin and tight but also very refreshing.

Bonacchi 2006 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $35
Distant sulfur notes take a few minutes to blow off. Once they do, the wine’s bright fruit qualities come into full view. This Brunello’s finish is characterized by dark extraction and smooth richness.
