San Filippo Brunello di Montalcino Le Lucére 2019

Reviews

97 -Decanter -

San Filippo is fully exposed to the east, meaning that in 2019 the Sangiovese was harvested relatively late, from 28 September to 7 October. The wine ages for the first 13-14 months in French oak barrique and tonneaux, then is racked into 20-30 hectolitre oak vessels for about 28 months. It's full of smoky woodland aromas with graphite vibrancy and minerality, cherry kernel, intoxicating violet, and blood orange depth. There's great concentration and volume on the mid-palate, with fine, super-precise tannins and refreshing acidity. But what impresses me most is the savoury character of this Brunello that's built for the long haul.

The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino le Lucére is a darkly concentrated wine with black fruit and a very creamy side. There are aromas of coconut butter and vanilla that meet bakery aromas of croissant or pie crust. The oak renderings are significant, but I give it good cellar potential, as it fleshes out, especially because there is plenty of dark primary fruit to give it aging momentum.

From one of the estate’s top vineyard sites, the 2019 Le Lucére captures the balance and purity of a standout Brunello vintage. Aromas of dark cherry, plum, and crushed herbs are layered with hints of spice, tobacco, and earth. The palate is structured yet refined, with polished tannins and vibrant acidity carrying the wine to a long, elegant finish. Built for aging, but already showing impressive harmony and depth.
