Fossacolle 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $48
Pretty savory tones and barbecue aromas combine to create a bold Brunello. Ripe fruit, black pepper, rum cake, black currant and blackberry preserves all appear in the background. Silky-smooth and firm, it shows a clean, sharp, bold close.  — M.L.  (5/1/2012)

Fossacolle 2006 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $65
Brunello Fossacolle opens with a darkly concentrated color and aromas of tobacco, spice, chocolate and meaty, pulpy black fruit. The wine presents a bigger, inky style and shows good depth and density on the palate thanks to its extracted consistency, creaminess and overall intensity.  — M.L.  (4/1/2011)

Fossacolle 2007 Riesci Red (Toscana)

  1. $45
Riesci is a super Tuscan blend of Cabernet, Petit Verdot and Merlot with lovely density and opulence backed by bright aromas of mature berry fruit, cherry cola, blackberry pie, leather and dark chocolate. It’s a black, inky wine with solid tannins that will cut through succulent steak.  — M.L.  (12/15/2010)

Fossacolle 2004 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $74
Fossacolle delivers both delicate complexity to the nose and long-lasting power to the palate. Aromas include blackberry, peppercorn, licorice and cedar wood. The mouth is awarded an extremely rich texture with velvety layers and cushiony soft tannins.  — M.L.  (6/1/2009)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $25

Fossacolle 2001 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)

  1. $64
Tight menthol, currant berry, cedar wood and dusty mineral notes eventually waft off a wine that seems reluctant to open at first. The structure is solid without being hard, with espresso, leather and a powerful, dry finish. Imported by Vias Imports.  — W.E.  (4/1/2006)

Fossacolle 2003 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)

  • Online Exclusive
Here’s a wine that would pair beautifully with rosemary-marinated lamb or succulent pork tenderloin. It offers balanced aromas of fresh berry fruit versus oak-driven spice and ends with plush tannins and a silky mouthfeel.  — M.L.  (5/1/2009)
