Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a deep and bright ruby red color. The bouquet is intense and complex, with hints of berries, sour cherries in spirits, cinnamon, tobacco, mint, and tea leaves. On the palate, the wine is enveloping, full, and well-structured, supported by velvety tannins that provide a creamy and refined sensation. The balsamic freshness and the mineral savory note accompany a long, persistent finish that is consistent with the authoritative character of great Brunello di Montalcino.
Recommended pairings
This Brunello di Montalcino naturally pairs with rich and structured dishes such as braised meats, stewed wild boar, grilled fillet, game, important roasts, and aged cheeses.
