Tenute Silvio Nardi 2006 Vigneto Monachiara Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $106
Austere and reserved with a dark side of exotic spice, anise and mature black fruit, Vigneto Manachiara is a savory, masculine and intense Brunello. In the mouth, the wine tastes dense, concentrated and opulent. This is a real crowd pleaser.

Tenute Silvio Nardi 2005 Vigneto Manachiara Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $96
This impressive vineyard designate Brunello delivers buoyant tones of cherry cola, mesquite and balsam notes. There’s a direct and immediate nature to the aromas, followed by bright acidity and silky tannins that leave a lasting impression. This is a very beautiful wine that would pair with meats and oven-roasted pasta dishes.

Tenute Silvio Nardi 1999 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $55
Full, classy and exciting from the first sniff to the last essence of the finish. Along the way is a largely flawless wine that bobs and weaves; at one moment it seems forward and modern; next, classic. Overall it’s a beauty with structure and style. The real deal in newer-style Brunello.

Tenute Silvio Nardi 1997 Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $60
Emilia Nardi, daughter of Silvio Nardi, is doing all the right things at this huge estate, especially with the development of clonal selection and denser planting of the vines. Her 1997 is a modern, new wood-dominated wine, but it also shows beautifully judged ripe fruits and sweet acidity. The overall effect is of great elegance, with good long-term aging potential.

Tenute Silvio Nardi 1998 Manachiara Sangiovese (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $65
This tannic beauty shows earth, coffee and caramel aromas prior to big-time plum, cherry and blackberry flavors. It’s huge in the mouth, with chewy, round tannins and uplifting acids. All the way through it’s integrated and smoky. Hold through 2006.

Tenute Silvio Nardi 2007 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $70
Black licorice, cola and cherry liqueur open the nose and segue to black currant and crème de cassis aromas, then forest floor, bramble and Spanish cedar. This wine is linear, crisp and tight on the palate, with firm tannins. Give the wine five more years to soften.
