For six generations, Massimo Benevelli’s family has farmed the steep hillsides in southeastern Barolo. Massimo, now forty-one, has worked among its vines since he was fourteen, and he knows exactly how to translate this distinctive terroir, which produces wines with the structure and concentration that epitomize great Barolo from Monforte. None of the soul has been buffed out, but notes of black cherries, forest floor, and blood orange emerge even more polished than usual. Truly phenomenal.
A blend of 60% Sangiovese, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot, this has aromas of cellar floor, black-skinned fruit and leather. The rounded straightforward palate suggests fleshy plum and vanilla alongside soft relaxed tannins. Drink soon.
Two brothers, Alessandro and Gian Natale Fantino, run this family estate in Monforte d’Alba. Alessandro managed the vineyards and served as the enologist at Cantina Bartolo Mascarello for 20 years, from 1978 to 1997. Since 1998, he has dedicated himself to running his family estate alongside his brother full-time.
This Riserva from Sesti is rich, dark and full-bodied. From a beautifully warm and sunny vintage, the 2015 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Phenomena displays dark fruit, ripe cherry, tobacco, balsam herb and exotic spice. A mere 3,750 bottles were made. The wine is textured and velvety with fresh acidity and integrated tannins.
The aromas of this complex red wine range from cherries and plums to gladiolus flowers and earthy flint. The tannic, oak-aged flavors are bright and round, with a dry, warm, earthy finish. Best enjoyed with very flavorful dishes, such as tomato-based sauces, mushroom ravioli, beef or pork roasts, and game meats from venison to pheasant. It is also excellent with mature cheeses.
