Warm and pronounced in the sensorial profile it shows notes of red plums, strawberries, geraniums, elderflowers, jasmine, linden, wild thyme and dried marjoram. Medium-full body, classic and harmonious in the sip, it shows a gentle soul and personality with a very pleasant modern relaxation. Better from 2025.

The Voliero 2019 Brunello di Montalcino has ripe cherry fruit and blackberry, with soft and ripe layering throughout. This wine shows the rich and plump side of 2019, a vintage that offers more concentration than average. Dark fruit flavors cede to spice, earth and toasted chestnut husk. This wine shows solid, chalky tannins. Some 7,600 bottles (and larger formats) were made, and they’re almost ready straight out of the gate. (Monica Larner)
Product Description:
Voliero is a second project of the very talented Andrea Cortonesi of Uccelliera and other producers started in 2006. These grapes come from the northern end of the Montalcino zone because they wanted to enhance the different aspects of the this extraordinary terroir. As the grapes for Voliero are from a cooler area, Andrea continues his minimalist approach to winemaking, and wants to only amplify the purity and finesse of the Northern Zone.
