2012 Pertimali (Livio Sassetti), Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany

Please note, this is a very limited offering.  We received a small, second tranche of the #1 Brunello, which is arriving next week.

Pertimali's list of accolades is getting longer and longer. With that, it is getting harder and harder to get the wine. With a 100 point score for Pertimali's 2010 Brunello, as a former Wine Spectator Top 100 wine, and now the highest rated Brunello of the historic 2012 vintage, it is no wonder Robert Parker declared, "If I had only one Brunello to drink it would be Pertimali."

Each year - regardless of press - Pertimali's Brunello is in high demand. "2012 is not a vintage to miss for fans of Brunello di Montalcino...these wines have [a lot] in common with the legendary 2010 vintage...a harmonious and gorgeous year for Brunellos.” (James Suckling) These are wines with “beautiful aromas, vibrant fruit, lively acidity, and ultra-fine tannins."

Out of all the stellar Brunellos of 2012, James Suckling selected the 2012 Pertimali Brunello as the ambassador and #1 wine. "Complex aromas of dried figs, dark fruits and hints of walnuts and dried meat. Full body, dense and polished palate. Velvety and poised tannins and a flavorful finish. Yet always refined and beautiful." J. Suckling

Orders will be filled, first come-first served.
