Brunello de Montalcino is one of Italy's most famous and most expensive red wines. And Uccelliera is one of the best producers.

“Without a shadow of a doubt, Andrea Cortonesi of Uccelliera lands high on my list of my favourite Brunello di Montalcino producers.”  The Wine Advocate

"Andrea Cortonesi’s biggest competition these days is oddly enough from himself!"  Antonio Galloni

''The 2018 Brunello Di Montalcino is lush with wooded spices, preserved cherry, sweet tobacco, and dried roses. It is full-bodied on the palate but has a compact structure, with ripe tannins, crunchy fruits, refreshing acidity, and fantastic balance. Notes of fresh sage, dusty earth, and berries are also layered throughout. It has the potential to develop beautifully over the years into the polished leather side. This is a fantastic and sunny wine.'' 96 Points, Jeb Dunnuck

''Undeniably pretty and slightly exotic, the 2018 Brunello di Montalcino wafts up with a multifaceted bouquet of wild strawberry, fresh mint, balsam herbs, cloves and hints of sweet smoke. This is luxuriously silky and supple, enveloping the palate in ripe wild berry fruits, as a tantalizing inner sweetness and hints of tobacco forms toward the close. Saline-minerals add an almost-crunchy feel through the finish, and while tannic, it doesn't distract at all from the 2018’s graceful nature, yet also energetic, as notes of plum and licorice linger on and on. This is a spectacular Brunello of the vintage.'' 94 Points, Eric Guido, Vinous Media
