Brunello di Montalcino, Valdicava, 2007 is one of those bottles that reminds you why people fall in love with Brunello in the first place.
With time in bottle, those firmer 2007 tannins have softened into something silky and enveloping, but there’s still plenty of structure holding everything together.
This is Brunello in full stride; powerful, polished and deeply satisfying. Perfect with slow-braised beef, wild boar ragù, or just a quiet evening when you want something truly special in the glass.
What the critics say:
"What beautiful clear fruit here, with plums and spices and hints of flowers. Class. Full- bodied and luscious, this Brunello fills your mouth, with polished velvety tannins and gorgeous fruit. So wonderful and gorgeous. Irresistible. Better than 2006. Best after 2016."
"The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino is gorgeous. Dark red cherries, plums, spices, leather and tobacco wrap around the palate as this dense, powerful wine starts to open up. Expressive aromatics are woven throughout, giving the 2007 a measure of polish and sophistication that is not always present in this wine when it is young. Finessed, suave tannins reinforce an impression of elegance. The 2007 can be enjoyed with minimum cellaring, but it will also age gracefully for many years. Readers who want to try the 2007 today should give the wine plenty of air, as the more refined qualities only emerge over time. When tasted next to the 2006, the 2007 shows redder tonalities of fruit and less sheer muscle. Hints of tobacco, crushed flowers and spices wrap around the sensual finish."
