Giuseppe Gorelli (Azienda Agricola Gorelli) stands as a benchmark producer of artisanal Sangiovese in Montalcino. Following a distinguished career as master winemaker and consultant, Gorelli established his estate in 2017 to produce small-batch, estate-bottled Brunello defined by classic high-altitude finesse and minimal intervention.

Brunello di Montalcino 2020 originates from Gorelli's north-northeast facing vineyard parcels situated at 350–400 meters elevation. Spontaneously fermented in neutral oak casks and macerated on skins for over 30 days, this wine underwent 36 months of patient aging in large neutral Slavonian and Austrian oak casks, followed by extensive bottle conditioning.

Tasting Profile: Translucent garnet-ruby hue. Enticing bouquet of dark red cherry, crushed rose petals, sweet dried tobacco, wild thyme, and crushed stone minerality. Broad yet weightless on the palate, presenting concentrated cherry fruit, bright vertical acidity, silky polished tannins, and a long, savory mineral finish.

Cellar for 15–25 years or decant 1–2 hours before serving at 16–18°C. Pair with braised short ribs, roasted leg of lamb, truffle tagliatelle, or mature Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Giuseppe Gorelli, Montalcino

Giuseppe Gorelli, a proud Montalcino native, began showcasing his winemaking talents at just 18, impressing the local consortium and learning from the legendary Giulio Gambelli. In 2017, he took a bold step and established his own winery in Northeast Montalcino, where he now tends to 6.3 hectares of vineyards known for their exceptional tannins and ideal growing conditions. His debut vintage in 2018 reflects his passion, with Sangiovese fermented spontaneously in Garbelotto casks, resulting in Rosso di Montalcino aged for nine months and Brunello for four years. Recently, he declared his first "riserva" from the cool 2019 vintage and shared the exciting news of finding a permanent cantina for his Garbelotto bottis also in the Northewestern Montalcino.
