Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino 'Madonna delle Grazie' DOCG 2009
Vintage Character
2009 Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino 'Madonna delle Grazie' DOCG comes from one of Montalcino’s most revered traditional estates and a single-vineyard selection at the northern side of the appellation. The vintage was warm and generous, producing Brunellos with ample fruit and early charm; in the best hands, including Il Marroneto, that richness is balanced by lift and precision. The site’s higher-elevation position near Montalcino, with its well-drained galestro-rich soils and ventilated exposure, helps preserve freshness and aromatic detail in Sangiovese, giving this bottling its distinctive combination of depth and finesse.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate awarded this wine 96 points, underscoring its standing among the most compelling Brunellos of the vintage. The bouquet is layered and haunting, opening on red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal and violet, then deepening into blood orange, balsamic herbs, sweet tobacco and subtle earthy spice. On the palate it is full yet finely drawn, with vibrant acidity, polished but persistent tannins, and a long, savory finish that carries notes of dried flowers, licorice and mineral tension. Pair it with bistecca alla Fiorentina, duck breast with cherry reduction, or porcini risotto.
Winery Background
Il Marroneto was founded in 1974 by Giuseppe Mori and is today led by Alessandro Mori, whose work has made the estate a benchmark for traditionally styled Brunello. Farming is attentive and vineyard-led, with hand harvesting and a strong emphasis on transparency of site rather than cellar manipulation. The house style favors classic methods: long macerations, fermentation in stainless steel, and maturation in large Slavonian oak casks instead of small barriques, preserving purity over overt oak influence. That unwavering traditionalism, combined with the singular identity of Madonna delle Grazie, is what makes this wine so sought-after by collectors and lovers of profound Sangiovese.
