Elia Palazzesi Brunello di Montalcino 2017
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
Indulgent and alluring, drinking Elia's ultra-refined Montalcino tastes like striking gold
- You don’t need to be a certified wine buff to know that this elegant, refined red is something really rather special - with its assertive character and warming spicy notes, this is the kind of drop you stash away to enjoy on high days and holidays.
-
Deep and intense, Elia’s Brunello is up there with the greatest of Sangiovese with it’s decadent nose of alluring lavender and spicy tobacco.
-
The palate is immediately silky soft and devilishly rich with indulgent flavours of dark chocolate, ripe black cherries and violets, all supported by a firm structure, and long sumptuous finish.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Elia Palazzesi
-
We first tried Elia’s Brunello di Montalcino at a London tasting event and it was so incredibly fresh and elegant that we decided to secure a share for Angels right there and then.
-
His winery is a family affair that’s developed over generations. The land was bought by his great-grandfather in the late 19th century, first farmed by his grandfather, and the very first vines were planted by Elia’s dad in the 1970s. Under Elia’s tutelage, the old family farm has been devoted 100% to grape-growing and become an incredible source of top-quality, organic Montalcino.
-
Elia's been making wines for over 30 years now and he still does much of the work in the vineyard himself. He looks tough when he’s all togged up in his green army t-shirt and khaki pants. But behind that facade he’s an absolute sweetheart and passionate family man who simply loves to make people happy with his wines.
