Drink To: 2017-2027

The Vignaferrovia vineyard takes its name from a characteristic old nineteenth century railway station still located a short distance from the vines. The Vignaferrovia vineyard grows on rocky, gravelly soils, a condition that naturally limits the grapevine’s growth rate and enhances the quality of the berries while southwestern vineyard exposure allows sea breezes to mitigate hot summer temperatures and limit heat spikes. The wine is elegant and captivating, characterized by a dense tannic structure complemented by freshness and sweetness. The Antinori family wanted to give their own deeply personal interpretation of the historic wine, Brunello di Montalcino.

Antonio Galloni

The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Ferrovia is deep, dense and quite attractive. A host of intense savory, ferrous notes hit the palate first, followed by dark red cherry, plum, smoke, leather and licorice. The Riserva is powerful and imposing, with big tannins from the super-extracted fermentation, but it also has plenty of personality. The Riserva will be even better in a few years, once the tannins have softened further.

The 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Pian delle Vigne is a well-built wine that shows the muscular side of this celebrated star of Tuscan winemaking. The Brunello opens to a thick, dark appearance with shapely aromas of dark cherry, plum, blackberry, leather dark chocolate and spice. The winemaking is impeccable, if rather stylized in terms of oak and fruit maturity. The aim here is to produce a wine the oozes softness and richness and this goal has been abundantly achieved. Pian delle Vigne is a Brunello that will excel in both the near and long term.

Tasted blind. Impenetrable, almost blackish ruby with narrow orange rim. Rich with a hint of fruit cake on the nose. Very ripe and dense and loaded with tannins. (WS)
