Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G. 2014

€75.00

The elegant, powerful 2014 Brunello was just a whisker from the “Benvenuto Brunello” podium in New York. The challenging weather conditions were met thanks to careful selection of the bunches, so only healthy, properly ripe grapes were harvested.

Its vibrant ruby red hues are tinged with hints of garnet. The nose profile tends prevalently to red berry fruit notes and hints of jam, sharing the scene with shades of leather in the extract. The fruity mouth notes combine with hints of sweet pipe tobacco and flint. Vibrant, minerally length is laced with fine-grained 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.
