The Story

Castiglion del Bosco Campo del Drago Brunello di Montalcino 2007 is a powerful and remarkably structured single-vineyard expression of 100% Sangiovese. Sourced from the highest and rockiest parcel of the estate's Capanna vineyard, this exceptional vintage spent 28 months aging in French oak barrels. In the glass, it displays a deep ruby-red color with classic garnet reflections. The nose is wonderfully expressive and high-toned, offering a complex bouquet of dark berries, wild cherries, freshly cut flowers, mint, and licorice, elegantly layered with rich undertones of roasted coffee and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, concentrated, and beautifully integrated, showcasing a solid core of bright dark fruit supported by firm, chewy tannins and vibrant acidity, culminating in a long, intense, and elegant finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs beautifully with braised short ribs, wild boar ragù over fresh pappardelle, roasted venison, truffle-infused dishes, and aged Pecorino Toscano cheese.

93 Points - James Suckling

A wine, with a solid core of fruit and lots of chewy tannins. Plenty of new wood here, giving it a coffee undertone. Full and intense. Give it two to three years to soften.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Youthful, bright and direct in its bold cherry and blueberry aromas. Vinous, chewy and raw with more evolution ahead. Chewy density with bold concentration and ripe fruit. Give it 4–6 more years.

93 Points - Wine Spectator

A full, rich, sumptuous red, featuring cedar, incense, cherry, tobacco and earth flavors. Fresh and lively, displaying warmth and hints of wild Mediterranean scrub. The lingering aftertaste echoes the wild herb and tobacco notes. Best from 2016 through 2027.
