The Good Juice In northeast Montalcino, the Sassetti family has produced wine for more than a century. On the hill known as Montosoli, Pertimali’s wines are renowned for representing the perfect balance between the fruit-forward wines of southern Montalcino and the dense, structured, mineral wines of the north. In the vineyard and in the cellar, father Livio and his two sons work in observance of time-honored traditions, including hand harvesting, giant oak botte, and spontaneous fermentations, all in accordance with the phases of the moon and organic farming regulations. The wines are rich, deep, and perfumed, reflecting a very genuine style of Sangiovese. 2006 Sassetti Brunello di Montalcino $69.95 per bottle – six packs “If I had only one Brunello to drink, it would be Pertimali. This producer has been making spectacular wines since 1982.” – The Wine Advocate “This venerable estate, one of Montalcino’s finest, continues to make wines of notable personality.” – The Wine Advocate What The Critics Have to Say about the 2006 94 Points "Licorice, tar, black cherry and plum aromas and flavors highlight this robust, chewy red. This is concentrated and intense, with all its components in the right proportions for a long evolution. Stiff tannins are matched by sweet fruit on the finish...94." - Wine Spectator 93 Points "Wonderful nose of mulberries and dried citrus fruit. Full body, with round and rich tannins that are polished and silky. Plenty of delicious fruit too. Consistently outstanding...93." - James Suckling 93 Points "Medium-light garnet. Lovely aromas of violets, black cherries, juicy blackberries, and dried basil. Medium-bodied, with round tannins providing elegant structure and support for the juicy berry flavors that are garnished with notes of black gum drops, licorice, and warm soil. Admirable length and balance. Harkens back to "old school" Brunello, but with more grace.
