Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G. 2013

€65.00

Winner of multiple awards, Brunello 2013 vaunts interesting aging potential. This vintage expresses not only fruity notes but develops mineral hints that make it eminently cellarable.

Its vibrant ruby red hues are tinged with garnet, with a spicy nose attack, followed by notes of sweet pipe tobacco and fresher hints of thyme, progressing to red berry jam. In mid-palate it offers vibrant mineral notes that bring good length supported by ripe tannins.

Aged in French oak tonneaux (50% in new wood; 50% in second-fill) for two years, then in the bottle for a further two years.

100% Sangiovese Grosso.

Sensory analysis: the wine, a deep ruby red color with garnet hues, with spicy olfactory notes that prevail and sensations that oscilliate between the notes of sweet tabacco and fresher ones, similar to thyme. This is followed by the fruity expression of red berry jam. On the palate, it offers vibrant and mineral notes, responsible for good persistence and supported by sweet tannins.
