Winery - Tiezzi
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tiezzi’s vineyard- select Brunello has an austere and sophisticated edge that comes forward thanks to the wine’s aromas of leather, spice, dried blueberries and cassis. The wine is bright and chewy in the mouth and offers a clean, polished quality of tannins.

Plump and thick aromas of black cherry and blueberry are backed by delicate nuances of red apple, tar and cola. There are pungent, balsam-like layers here that give the wine lift and buoyancy and ultimately help the wine taste refreshing and clean.

Thick and penetrating with dense aromas of cola, black fruit, forest floor and spice, Tiezzi brings us a confident and classy expression from Montalcino. There’s a playful note of sweet succulence on the close.

Sweet and liqueur-like, with aromas of red licorice, candied cherries and caramel. In the mouth, the flavor of brown sugar rides high over the creamy palate. Too heavy for the category, and lacking in excitement.

This vineyard-designate Brunello opens with ripe tones of prune, thick blackberry fruit and lingering but subdued Indian spice. This is not an overblown or overly intense wine. Instead, the focus is on elegance and longevity.

Toasty notes of almond and walnut are followed by black fruit, cherry and cassis. The wine is bright, sharp and cleansing in the mouth with tonic acidity and a compact feel overall.

Here’s a dark and concentrated Brunello with thick aromas of spice, smoke and tobacco lavished over a solid core of black fruit. The nose is definitely on the oak-driven side but the mouth is bursting with fresh fruit notes. It makes for an excellent ensemble.

Enzo Tiezzi from the Podere Soccorso farm in Montalcino has crafted a rich and luscious wine with drying mineral tones backed by fresh berries and raspberries. It’s an easygoing wine that would pair with most pasta dishes.

Red licorice, raspberry jam and a hint of cherry tomato make for a modest but open bouquet. To the contrary, the palate is hard, with fierce tannins. As for flavors, the wine locks into that familiar black cherry, medicinal tune before finishing with vanilla and milk chocolate. Imported by Michael Skurnik Wines.

This boutique winery from Montalcino proposes a compact and traditional expression of Brunello with penetrating balsam aromas of root beer, chopped mint, white almond and plump cherry. The wine earns high points for presenting such an elegant side despite the hot year.
