Celestino Pecci Brunello di Montalcino Poggio Al Carro 2015
SO much bang for the buck! Because we go back some years now, we import directly from her and have access to a bit more of the prized single-vineyard “Al Carro” than most, and pricing is unbeatable.
Tiziana is making traditional, but terrifically drinkable Brunello di Montalcino (especially in a vintage like ‘15) at her small-yet-gorgeously-perched and rustic winery, and this vintage is deep and dark with lovely overall harmony and mouthfeel, ringing with berries, sweet herbs, a touch of citrus and earth...best Al Carro yet!!
Read the notes from the pros below. If you’re new to it, this is one to grab while it’s still (somewhat) under the radar, and if you’re one of the folks who asked... BOOM, here you go!
PAIRING IDEAS: Pasta! If you have a favorite type of spicy sausage, this is the dish to make. Super simple, garlicky, cheesy, spicy and oh-so good with Brunello. Use any pasta, but the local Etruscans would be happy to see you use “pici” as they do in Montalcino and around Siena.
MUSIC SUGGESTIONS: "Lawless Soirez” by Gill Landry.
