97 points “Opulent aromas of cherry plum dried meat and orange peel with some bark and cedar. Full-bodied with firm yet polished tannins that fill mouth and carry far down the wine to the end. It’s creamy-textured and chewy. Purity and integration. Very drinkable now but needs another two or three years to come around. Try after 2022.” – James Suckling
95 points “The Castiglion del Bosco 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Millecento represents a happy return for a wine that we have not seen in a few years. This Riserva draws its fruit from an eight-hectare parcel with schistous galestro soils surrounded by thick forests and wildlife. Some 10 000 bottles were made. There is soft and rich cherry fruit at the core with light shadings of spice cinnamon tilled earth and a more sanguine tone of rust or iron ore.” – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Castiglion del Bosco was purchased by Massimo Ferragamo son of the Italian shoe designer who founded the luxury goods company Salvatore Ferragamo. Considerable investment has raised this estate located within a UNESCO site called Val d’Orcia National Park back to its fashionable and leading best.
The finest Sangiovese matured in French oak for three years and then a further two years in the bottle before release Castiglion del Bosco Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Millecento 2015 is the epitome of elegance.
2015 was a monumental vintage for Brunello di Montalcino making rare and very chic Riservas like this something you’re going to want to stock up on.
