ROSSO DI MONTALCINO 2021 The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino is dark and earthy in the glass, smoldering up with a blend of flowery underbrush, crushed rocks, wilted violets and cedar spice box aromas. It smooths over the palate with ripe, opulent red fruits balanced by cooling acidity and mineral tones. While lightly tannic and potent, the 2021 finishes remarkably fresh, leaving salted licorice hints to linger. Open this ahead of time to allow its aromatic complexities to unfold fully.
93 pt. BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2018 A darkly floral bouquet of musky red currants and hints of savory spice wafts up from the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino. It’s silky and pliant, with herbal-tinged red and black fruits that flow across a core of saline-minerality. The 2018 finishes long and staining to the senses, with a web of fine tannins offset by hints of citrus-tinged blackberry. There’s an underlying power here seldom seen in the 2018 vintage, but patience will be required. - By Eric Guido on October 2022

★★★★★
94 POINTS BY VINOUS- BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG RISERVA DUELECCI EST 2013. This vineyard is called Duelecci Est, or ‘’two holm oak east’’, but is in fact a south- facing vineyard that is the ideal source of grapes for Tenuta di Sesta’s Riserva bottling in cooler years (while the more protected grapes od Duelecci Ovest are better suited to making the Riserva wine in hot years, such as was the case in 2012.
★★★★★
92 POINTS BY VINOUS- BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2014: Good medium red. Subtly complex aromas of black cherry, blackberry, sweet spices and resiny herbs. On the lean, side in keeping with the cool and rainy vintage, but boasts lovely intensity and definition to its flavors of black cherry and raspberry complicated by a candied orange note. This strikes me as much less flinty than usual for this wine, with the long refreshing finish featuring polished tannins and flavors of sweet coffee and sweet pipe tobacco. One of the more successful 2017 Brunellos.
★★★★★
91 POINTS- BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2013: Medium- dark red, this is actually lighter than the 2016 Rosso Doc from tenuta di Sesta. Strong notes of tobacco, wet underbrush and botanical herbs camouflagered fruit and balsamic aromas. Enters bright and juicy, than more austere and steely, reveaqling a slightly bitte twist to th floral red berry flavors. Cellar this for five or six years and see if it fills out.
★★★★★
94 POINTS- BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG RISERVA DUELECCI OVEST 2012 Satured red. Deep aromas of pomegranate, sexy spices, red cherry, sweet spices and camphor. Fresh and juicy, offering dense flavors and sandalwood, graphite and juicy red cherry. Finishes long and clean, with outstanding cut and clarity. Strikes me as a much more serious, deeper win than 2013 Brunello Docg. This wine is the first vintage made from a Vineyard planted in 2011.

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2010. The 2010 Riserva is a beautiful wine with wonderful elegance and class. This precise Brunello opens with aromas of red berries and cherries woven together by licorice mineral and hints of dark chocolate. On the palte this medium-bodied and well balanced with a lovely inner sweetness which carries on through the silky finish. Allow this some time as it continues to evolve with each second in the glass. ( Best 2017-2028) - February , 2016 (JD)

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2009- VINO DELL' ECCELLENZA
POGGIO D'ARNA 2020 This is a terrific value. A blend of 40% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 20% Sangiovese, the Tenuta di Sesta 2020 Poggio d'Arna hits that right balance between accessibility and power. The wine offers lots of dark fruit, blackberry liqueur and sweet barbecue spice. The tannins are integrated into the wine's thicker texture and its generous fruit layering. The alcohol is measured at 14.5%, and you do feel it. This is a production of 25,000 bottles.
BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO RISERVA DUELECCI OVEST DOCG 2017 Usually part of a pair of Riservas (Duelecci Est and Duelecci Ovest) released from this estate, this hot-vintage expression shows lots of ripe fruit, baked blackberry and thick concentration. The Tenuta di Sesta 2017 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Duelecci Ovest does not have the depth or elegance of a cooler-vintage expression, and the wine compensates with extra richness and heavy fruit. There is a very mild point of astringency on the close that you commonly find across this vintage. Fruit comes from a 1.5-hectare site with deep soils rich in limestone, iron and micro elements. Only 3,000 bottles were released.
BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2018 The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino offers a full and generous personality with layers of dark fruit, cola, rosemary and balsam herb. This is a medium to full-bodied Sangiovese with lots of ripe fruit, soft tannins and rich texture. Like many of the Brunellos from this vintage, this wine offers an accessible side that makes it easy to drink without waiting too much longer. Production is 40,000 bottles.
BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO RISERVA DUELECCI EST 2016: "Apre con un colore scuro e ricco in concentrazione. Questo vino è molto potente e colpisce i sensi da tutti i lati. Ricco in frutta nera, rosa canina, terriccio, spezie e tabacco, è un Brunello pieno".
BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO 2017 "Mostra frutta matura di un'annata calda, ciliegie e marmellata di fragola. La morbidezza lascia spazio al maggior peso della frutta, in particolare della frutta nera. La fresca acidità aiuta a bilanciare il vino nel suo finale di media complessità."
POGGIO D'ARNA 2019 - 90 punti "La forza dominante di questo vino è data dal denso sentore di frutta e dal colore molto scuro che sembra inchiostro. Aromi di prugna, rosmarino, spezie e cenere danno a questo vino dal corpo pieno una potenza duratura ed una inconfondibile personalità."

BRUNELLOM DI MONTALCINO DOCG RISERVA DUELECCI OVEST 2015: 96 POINTS ''The Tenuta di Sesta 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Duelecci Ovest is only made in the best years. The wine represents a special selection of fruit that can either come from the ''Ovest'' (west) or the ''Ets'' (east) side of the Duelecci site, depending on the weather. The soil are very rocky on the east side, making that parcel better in the cool vintages. They are thinner on the west side, and the grapes here perform better in the warm vintages. There' s a little doubt, I think, that the sunny 2015 vintage would draw its fruit from the sunset side. This is an immediately attractive and genorous expression that doles out dark fruit followed by spice, earth, candied orange and wilted blue flower. Top the palate.it delivers a broad and powerful performance, although you don't get same etched or super focused characteristics that we saw in 2016. That slightly softer approach makes this a great choice for your favorite steak dinner. A mere 4000 bottles were made.''

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2016: POINTS 94+ ''This wine sources its fruit from a moderately high parcel that measures 13 hectares and is perched 400 metres in elevation. The soil here are this and drain well, with a mix of calcareous and schistous terrain. The Tenuta di Sesta 2016 Brunello di Montacino is fermented with with ambient yeasts in stainloess steel and later ages in varous-sized botte made with Slavonian oak. This very natural and traditional approach allows for those expressive vintage aromas to shine bright. This 2016 Brunello shows linear fruit with forest berry and wild cherry. You get all of that tight tannins, cola and mineral. Some 40.000 bottles were made, and this wine delivers a classic and straightforward interpretation of this terrific vintage.''

The 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Duelecci Ovest shows soft fruit fiber and loose texture that is certainly due to the hot growing conditions in this vintage cycle. There is lots of dark fruit at the core of this muscular and determined Sangiovese. Dried blackberry and plum are woven between layers of spice, leather and pressed rose. This wine ages in large Slavonian oak casks for three years.

90 POINTS- BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2011: The 2011 Brunello di Montalcino shows aromas of candied fruit and cassis that are tight and precious. This wine does not share the wide and expansive personality of many of the other Brunellos produced in this warm vintage. Instead, this expression is more introspective and timid. Those delicate berry notes are followed by cola, balsam herb and licorice root. The wine is streamlined and simple and this comes as a pleasant surprise given the much meatier and heftier characteristics of its peers.

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO 2010 TENUTA DI SESTA: The elegant 2010 Brunello di Montalcino shows an impressive degree of inner grace and harmony. This wine expresses itself articulately with the softest tones. No part of its message is too loud. In fact, it whispers seductively with small fruit aromas, forest bramble, root beer, dried herb and balsam notes. The effect is feminine and finessed. Polished tannins make way for fresh acidity and long persistency. This Brunello sees 30 months of aging in large oak casks and is fermented with indigenous yeasts.
