The Merano WineFestival tasting commitee - The WineHunter - led by Helmuth Köcher tried our new vintages for the annual selection of the fair, which will be held from 9 to 13 November in the beautiful Kurhaus.
Rosso di Montalcino and Ombrone 2015 got the Red Award (88-89.99 points), while our Brunello 2013 figures out as the only Brunello in the running for the Platinum Award. Among more than 5000 wines tasted, just 54 of them collected more than 93 points and aim to the highest reward. Our Brunello stands alongside Le Macchiole Paleo 2015, Tenuta di Trinoro Palazzi 2016, Montevertine Pergole Torte 2015, Tua Rita Giusto di Notri 2015, Ornellaia 2015, Conterno Fantino Barolo Ginestra 2015, San Leonardo 2013, Vajra Barolo Bricco delle Viole 2014 and a few others - here's the full list.
We already received the Platinum Award in 2015 with Brunello Riserva 2009, while our Brunello di Montalcino 2002 was at the top of all the wines poured at the Festival back in 2007 with 99 points!
