      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: Andrea Cortonesi of Uccelliera shows real talent when it comes to highlighting vintage variation in his wines. His 2015 Brunello di Montalcino captures the exuberance and the ebullience of this sunny and warm growing season. However, the wine remains orderly, precise and very elegant nonetheless, with a pretty succession of aromas that play cautiously forward, building in intensity along the way. Dried currant and cherry cede to moist earth, rose petal and balsam herb. The wine's medium-weight body is supported by fresh acidity and well-managed tannins (with 36 months of oak aging). All of these moving pieces work in harmony.
      • James Suckling: Plenty of earth, tar, spices, dried cherries and red plums here. The tannins have a firm but generous quality to them, providing an abundance of structure to the full-bodied palate. I love the juxtaposition between ripe fruit and tightly webbed texture. Drink from 2023.

      Producer Information

      Uccelliera is a small estate and winery on the southeast slopes of the Tuscan hilltop village of Castelnuovo del'Abato in southern Montalcino. It is highly regarded for its red wines made from Sangiovese, most notably its Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. The winery was established by owner and winemaker Andrea Cortonesi, when he bought the Uccelliera farm in 1986. At the time it was a four-hectare (10-acre) property with less than a single hectare planted with vines. After some expansion and renovation, the modern property now extends to six hectares (15 acres), almost all of which is under vine. Sangiovese dominates the plantings and is exclusively used in the Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino wines, as required by appellation laws. The Brunello comes from plots across the property and blended together to take advantage of the different aspects and terroirs within the estate. There are also small parcels of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot planted, which are blended with Sangiovese to make the estate's IGT blends. Uccelliera also makes a Brunello-designated grappa. Cortonesi makes another Brunello in partnership with other producers in the region. The wine is made under the label Voliero and vinified at other wineries, but bottled at Uccelliera.
