95 Points - Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com (2017 Vintage)
"Incandescent on the nose showing notes of white pepper, crushed stone, chalk, talcum, mandarin blossom, lime rind and wilted linden. The background shines thanks to the beauty of wild thyme and citronella. Medium to full bodied, soft tannins of notable beauty and a finale which will come out over time. Better from 2023."
Taste
The 2017 Cava d'Onice Brunello di Montalcino displays a brilliant, deep ruby-red colour and an intense bouquet marked by ripe plums, blueberries, and red berries layered with hints of balsamic and complex mineral notes. On the palate, you’ll find a balanced character: the body is solid yet elegant, with well-integrated tannins, a bright acidity, and a lingering, savoury finish. A wine of considerable poise and length, it is equally at home with rich game or mature cheeses.
Producer
Cava d’Onice is a small, family-run estate in Montalcino led by Simone Nannetti, whose artisanal approach and passion for Sangiovese are at the core of production. The estate champions sustainable viticulture, limiting interventions in both vineyard and cellar. One of the things that truly sets Cava d’Onice apart is their commitment to expressing the diversity of Montalcino’s terroir: each parcel is vinified separately, highlighting different soils and exposures, and resulting in wines of marked individuality and depth.
