Canalicchio di Sopra is one of our favourite producers of Brunello. The newly released 2018 is, which was our favourite of all the 30+ Brunello producers we tasted in October last year.
The vineyards are located in the cooler north of the region, where the wines tend to be more elegant and complex. The 2018 is no exception. The wine has all the expected density, with complex notes of wild berries, leather, sandalwood, and forest fruits.
Overall, the vintage compares favourably against the 2017s, which was a warm vintage. The slightly cooler and more classic 2018 suits this style of wine better. It has proper tannins and acidity, which will frame it for medium to long-term ageing.
