The Story
This classic, estate-grown Brunello di Montalcino presents a deep, brilliant ruby red color tending toward garnet with age. The bouquet is intense, elegant, and complex, slowly opening with rich aromas of ripe red cherries, wild blackberries, and preserved plums, beautifully layered with traditional nuances of leather, tobacco leaf, sweet spices, and a hint of forest floor. On the palate, it exhibits a full-bodied, multi-layered structure where a dense fruit core is masterfully balanced by a vibrant, refreshing acidity. The mouthfeel is concentrated yet velvety, supported by powerful, fine-grained tannins that lead into a long, savory, and remarkably persistent finish.
Food Pairing: Outstanding alongside roasted red meats, slow-cooked wild game, thick-cut Bistecca alla Fiorentina, and highly matured regional pecorino cheeses.
