2016 Baricci 'Nello' Brunello di Montalcino Riserva
Baricci Riserva Nello is the pinnacle of the estate, born from the most exceptional grapes of the “cru within the cru” in the Montosoli hills — a site long celebrated for producing reserve-quality wines. Crafted only in outstanding vintages, this limited-edition Riserva is a tribute to Nello Baricci and his lifelong dedication to making Sangiovese the heart of Montalcino. Each bottle is individually numbered and presented in elegant wooden cases, reflecting the care and reverence behind its creation.
In the glass, the wine shows a deep ruby color with garnet hints. The nose is complex and ethereal, layered with aromas of ripe red berries, subtle spice, and earthy undertones. On the palate, it delivers full-bodied structure, silky tannins, and persistent elegance, revealing a wine of power, balance, and timeless refinement.
This Riserva is ideal with rich Tuscan fare — roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses — as well as special celebratory meals, offering an experience that honors both Montosoli’s terroir and the legacy of Baricci.
