Description
Brunello di Montalcino Vignavecchia San Polo Magnum
Brunello di Montalcino 2015 DOCG Vignavecchia San Polo Magnum is a great Tuscan red in magnum format, designed for those seeking a wine with character, depth, and remarkable aging potential. Signed by San Polo, it interprets the Sangiovese of Montalcino with a rich, elegant, and territorial style, enhancing a historic vineyard capable of expressing complexity and finesse.
Territory and wine style
The wine originates from the Vignavecchia vineyard, in Montalcino, in an area facing west and located at 420 meters above sea level, on stony and poor soils rich in galestro. This context gives the Brunello di Montalcino Vignavecchia a strong territorial identity, combined with structure and taste tension. The vines, trained to a spurred cordon and with limited yield, contribute to a concentrated and precise material. The 2015 vintage, described as particularly favorable, has favored healthy and ripe grapes, with well-preserved acidity and excellent foundations for a long-lived wine.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red. The aromatic profile recalls ripe red fruits, violet, underbrush, and delicate hints of aromatic wood. On the palate, it shows warmth, a dense texture, and a beautiful verticality, with a solid and persistent taste progression. The presence of Sangiovese translates into freshness, momentum, and tannic finesse, while the magnum format promotes a more harmonious evolution over time. The result is a complex, elegant Brunello di Montalcino suitable for long aging in the bottle.
Recommended pairings

Its structure makes it perfect for high-level gastronomic occasions, where the wine must support intense flavors without losing elegance.
Serving temperature
