The Castello Romitorio Filo di Seta Brunello di Montalcino 2021 is an elegant, highly precise, and multi-layered Old World red wine that represents a premier barrel-selection expression of the estate's high-altitude northwest terroir. It pours a radiant, deep ruby-red colour with dark jewel-toned reflections, unfurling with an alluring bouquet of dried black cherries, wild raspberries, and blood orange, seamlessly woven with undertones of crushed violets, sweet lavender, mint, and exotic spices. On the palate, this full-bodied, pure Sangiovese is brilliantly focused, racy, and sleek, coating the mouth with pure intensities of dark stone fruits, vertical density, and a crunchy mineral edge derived from its bluish galestro schist soils. Matured for approximately 30 months in fine oak barrels to maximize its incredible aging potential, it is driven by a vibrant, electric acidity and ultra-fine, tightly knit tannins that carry into an impressively long, persistent, and harmonious finish.
Food Pairing: This highly structural and food-friendly Brunello pairs exquisitely with rich, savory, or gamy dishes, including classic osso buco, slow-cooked wild boar ragù, prime cuts of grilled dry-aged steak with truffle risotto, roasted wild game birds, and a selection of hard, aged artisanal cheeses like Pecorino Toscano.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Castello Romitorio’s 2021 Brunello di Montalcino Filo di Seta is a striking expression of the vintage, sourced from a site at 270 meters in elevation on bluish galestro schist that lends power, focus and a distinct mineral edge. Planted in 1995 to old Sangiovese clones that produce naturally small clusters, the vineyard yields compact, dark fruit accented by mint and rosemary, echoing the surrounding forested landscape. A barrel selection from the 2.5-hectare site, this wine shows greater definition and density than the village Brunello, with vertical structure, poised acidity and a glossy, tightly knit texture. Fresh and bright yet richly layered, it closes on a beautifully balanced, sweet finish, gaining volume with air. Production is limited to 6,500 bottles.
Wine Spectator
Macerated plum, cherry, blackberry, iron and eucalyptus flavors are the hallmarks of this fresh, invigorating red. Shows harmony and a juicy midpalate before the malleable tannins leave their grip on the finish. Spice and salty mineral accents add detail. Balanced and super long, this reveals excellent potential.
