San Polino Helichrysum Brunello di Montalcino 2018
Jancis Robinson: "Lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Fine and subtle and a little subdued with just a suggestion of new oak. Succulent but tight, while the tannins are still unsettled. Very long and with hidden depth."

This has an intense and attractive nose of peach stones, wild strawberries, cherries, cocoa beans, licorice, matcha and pressed flowers. Generous and aromatically open, with tightly-knit tannins interwoven with layers that keep on giving. Evolves to roasted tea leaves and minerals. Medium and fresh. From organically grown grapes. Try in 2024.

Helichrysum is crafted from vineyards around San Polino’s winery in Montalcino’s southeast. Harvested just after the estate Brunello, the grapes saw the same pre-fermentation maceration to fix colour, as well as gentle daily pumpovers to keep fragile skins intact. Opening slowly, it's as equally distinct in fragrance as its sister bottling - though more Mediterranean in temperament. Lavender and scented broom mingle with pepper, expanding with sumptuous tannins that hem in plentiful fruit, perky acidity that keeps it lively, and a long and violet-tinged finish. It definitely carries the stuffing and structure for ageing.

Lustrous ruby with orange tinges. Fine and subtle and a little subdued with just a suggestion of new oak. Succulent but tight, while the tannins are still unsettled. Very long and with hidden depth. Great interpretation of the vintage with plenty of youthful fruit as well as freshness, but much too young to approach. All Sturm und Drang right now. (WS)
