Earlier this year we put forth one of our most successful offers in months. When we dropped the price of Renieri’s Brunello di Montalcino 2016 to just $55, you pounced at the chance to drink a rock solid producer from a legendary vintage. We received countless emails, comments and calls about how delicious this wine was for the money.
Immediately, we got to work trying to work up another amazing offer from this producer. It took us a little while, but sure enough … we’ve found another ‘can’t miss’ buy. Renieri’s Riserva from the very same vintage. In top vintages, a Brunello producer will earmark their best vineyards and plots to go straight to a Riserva bottling. The best fruit aged for an extended period of time results in next level Brunello.
How Good was the 2016 harvest in Montalcino? Every major critic declared it a can’t miss harvest …
“98 Points: Brunello from 2016 … are poised for long-term success, they will undoubtedly be remembered as important highlights on a long timeline of vintages. These are career-defining wines for many estates and for the appellation as a whole.” – Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
“99 Points: Textbook growing season resulted in wines of finesse and elegance, balance and harmony, with mostly red fruit flavors.” – Wine Spectator
As an individual achievement, the Renieri Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 received tremendous accolades from every critic, including James Suckling who graded it at 98 Points writing, "Enticing black truffle aromas with cherry and strawberry. The palate is full and tight with super polished tannins that are layered and refined. Great length. Goes on and on. Try after 2025 but already captivating."
The original suggested retail price for Renieri’s Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 was $119.99. We managed to lock down a very small quantity at just $69.99/btl. Netting you a savings over 40% .. plus, when you buy 3+ btls, you’ll get Free Ground Shipping! No code required. |
