TASTING NOTES
94pts - James Suckling
"Subtle noes of red cherries, pepper, leather and cocoa powder wrapped up in fresh violets. Firm attack of extracted chalky tannins soaked in cherries, with a full body and refreshing acidity. Savory, fruity finish."
93pts - Jeb Dunnuck
"A saturated red color, the 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva Gli Angeli takes on a supple and ripe profile with aromas of cherry pie, baking spices, sweet cedar, and crushed flowers. Medium to full-bodied, this continues to the palate with supple tannins, a delicately rounded mouthfeel, and a clean, lifted finish. It’s a very attractive wine now and should have an open window for drinking over the next 8-10 years, but it doesn't feel structured enough for the cellar much longer than that."
93pts - Wine Advocate
"The La Gerla 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva gli Angeli shows warm-vintage characteristics with baked fruit and prune. Those mature fruit sensations feed nicely into the wine's medium-weight texture. The finish is not too long, and there is a dusty or brittle quality to the tannins that is commonly found in wines from the 2018 vintage."
