Monica Larner
Made in limited numbers, the 2012 Brunello di Montalcino Filo di Seta is a commanding wine. With just 4,000 bottles produced, it reflects the extreme power and depth that can be achieved at this cooler Montalcino microclimate. The 2012 vintage was hot and dry, thus creating ideal growing conditions for Castello Romitorio`s fruit. Vineyards here are planted on steep slopes and surrounded by thick forest and vegetation. In fact, you can`t help but notice a wild and brambly element to this wine that recalls forest floor, truffle and autumnal leaf. These pretty accents add complexity to the wine`s solid core of dark fruit. The mouthfeel is polished and tight and not without power. 94 points
