San Filippo Brunello di Montalcino Le Lucére 2019
97 POINTS! The ICONIC 2019 Brunello vintage. The far-and-away BEST price in the USA...let’s GOOOOO!!!
“San Filippo is home to some of the best boutique Brunello today…” – Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate
Yep. Can confirm. And Le Lucére? Their very best plot – at the very heart of Montalcino – close to the iconic Biondi Santi’s IL GREPPO vineyard, La Serena, and more! 97 POINTS, 96, 95+...this gorgeous, silky, and absolutely BANGIN’ Brunello is one of the tippy-top best of the entire vintage, and proprietor Roberto Giannelli has quickly made this one of the most remarkable estates ANYWHERE!
We popped in for a couple nights a few months back (and also partied with Roberto at VinItaly in Verona over copious Champagne and bottomless negronis until the wee hours…), and DAMN! If this isn’t just a showstopper! The 2018 we featured some weeks back was/is/always shall be something special – yet this stunning 2019 ramps the stakes up even higher – landing on my shortlist for the very best 2019 Brunellos I’ve tried to date! A top-o’-the-charts FIVE STAR vintage for the region, considered by many to be one of the very best of the last 50+ years!!!
Impressively powerful, shockingly vibrant, and intensely perfumed with rose petals, lavender, and whispers of minty eucalyptus – this lush and seductive wine takes no time at all to welcome you to a whole 'nother level of Brunello goodness. The deep cherry, crushed raspberry, and macerated strawberry sensations awaken with a few swirls in the glass, followed by this lovely Earl Grey tea note, and a finishing medley of spices that would make the Tangier markets seem woefully inadequate.
No brainer time, my friends, truly. We don’t have nearly as much of this as we’d like – and you’d best believe that I’ve already loaded up! You’ll want to visit this again and again for years to come – so just be sure you get enough! 2019 Brunello di Montalcino for da WIN!!!!
** San Filippo sits on 22 hectares, with an old farmhouse and chapel dating back to 1672. Super consultant and Tuscan LEGEND Paolo Caciorgna guides the winemaking, with the day-to-day under the watchful gaze of Thomas Bianciardi. If you’re ever in Montalcino…this is a MUST! **
