Brunello-di-Montalcino-2018-Brunello-Prime-Donne-2018
This offer is for those who want to start the new year as every great wine lover dreams. The 2018 vintage crowns the talent of Tuscan winemakers. A vintage that is very reminiscent of those of our grandparents and that gave us a Brunello that is modern, elegant and very rich in perfumes. These are the first BIO Brunellos by Donatella Cinelli Colombini.
BIO is a certification that aims to protect the environment and consumers, and which only allows the use of a little sulphur and copper in the vineyards. The grass is managed only with hoeing and the fertilizer is exclusively stable manure. The vines are taken care of manually and we no longer tie the vines with plastic to prevent this from creating pollution.
Brunello Prime Donne is part of a project for the enhancement of female talent in the oenological field. A panel of 4 very expert female tasters blind taste the future Brunello in all phases of its life: as soon as it is born, in the barrel, in blending. They are the Masters of Wine, Rosemary George and Madeleine Stenwreth, the wine expert Astrid Schwarz and the sommelier Daniela Scrobogna.
LINK FOR ONLINE TASTING

THE FIRST REVIEW OF OUR BRUNELLO 2018
- James Suckling 93/100
<<Rich and fat flavours of chocolate, nuts, sage, spice box and dark cherries. Full body with a ripe core of dark fruit complemented by fine, grainy tannins. Lots of flavour. Obtained from organic farming. To drink after 2023.>>
THE FIRST REVIEW OF OUR BRUNELLO PRIME DONNE 2018
- James Suckling 94/100
<<This is a delicious, complex, often Brunello with aromas of cherries, nutmeg, liquorice, dried flowers and walnuts. Decisive and fine tannins give a robust image of a central nucleus of fruit and spices that evolves by concentrating. Powerful and seductive. Obtained from organic vineyards. Try it in 2025.>>
INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRINKING AND STORAGE OF BRUNELLO
FOOD PAIRING: wine for important lunches or dinners, it should be combined with aged cheeses, tasty meats and intense but not fatty foods.
HOW TO ENJOY BRUNELLO: Room temperature (18°C). White crystal goblets with wide bowl. It is best to uncork an hour before serving and decant.
CELLARING: 15-20 years for Brunello. Keep the bottles flat, in the dark and in the cold.
CLIMATE TREND IN 2018
2018 should be considered a cold and rainy year, winter and spring were characterized by heavy rains up to June and they were also abundant in the end of August and beginning of September, a usually dry period, while the month of July was dry and warm. Temperatures were often below average and there were never any heat peaks, only the month of July was more constant while September had lower temperatures. The vines had good growth in the May-June period but with a clear delay due to the low temperatures, budding was in mid-April and flowering at the end of May. The stable weather in July facilitated the start of veraison, however the rain in late August and early September slowed down the ripening. Luckily the end of September was dry and the grapes completed their ripening.
