This red wine is produced since 1892 and was awarded many times for its quality. This wine is the “heart” of our production and it is made with 100% Sangiovese grapes from our best vineyards in Montalcino.
Grape Varietals:
Sangiovese 100%.
Colour:
brilliant and bright ruby red, medium intensity.
Bouquet:
red berry fruits, cherry, mint and rosehip. Light hints of wild fennel and sage.
Taste:
elegant, smooth with a pleasant spiciness. The sip is austere and aristocratic with an “old style” final. Good balance between acidity and tannin. A classic Brunello which reminds the Seventies productions.
Food Combination:
Perfect for important dishes, roasted or grilled red meats, game, venison, stewed wild boar. Excellent with mature cheeses.
95 Points - Jeb Dunnck, "The 2016 Brunello has delicate savory aromas of rosemary, dried raspberry, and floral forest floor. There is freshness and pure ripe fruit that fills the palate, with blood orange, dried red cherry, and fresh tomato leaf as well as classic, angular tannin structure and a pleasant light bitterness. This wonderfully expressed traditional wine will be prime for enjoyment over the next 15 years. 2021–2036."
93 Points - Decanter, "Intense nose of red cherries, cedar wood toast and blonde tobacco. Firm structure with great freshness, and savory aftertaste."
