Piancornello, Rosso Di Montalcino 2019
Piancornello Rosso di Montalcino shines with a bright ruby colour and a nose full of red and black berries, liquorice, and a touch of sweet tobacco. On the palate it’s firmer and more structured than the estate’s Campo della Macchia, with chewy tannins, slightly lower acidity, and beautifully judged oak framing its cherry and plum fruit. Made entirely from Sangiovese grown in the same vineyards as Piancornello’s Brunello di Montalcino, this Rosso skips the extended ageing of Brunello DOCG. Instead, it spends 10 months in tonneaux (about a quarter of which are new) before bottling, capturing freshness while still showing depth and character.
Yalumba, 'The Cigar' Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
A sleek, modern take on Cabernet from one of Australia’s most dependable hands. It’s refined rather than forceful, showing dark fruit, fine-grained tannins and well-judged oak that adds shape without overshadowing the fruit. Named after the long, narrow shape of the vineyard parcels, The Cigar is all about line and balance. A confident, polished Cabernet that drinks well now but will reward a few years in bottle.
