Brunello di Montalcino is the ambassador of top quality Italian wines around the world, the first wine to receive the DOCG appellation. Brunello is a brilliant ruby red colour, tending towards garnet red with age. Its bouquet is intense, pure, pleasant and refined, reminiscent of sweet violet, tobacco, chocolate and pleasant hints of wild berries and vanilla. Its flavour fully confirms the above in a well-balanced, full-bodied wine with good tannins and a solid structure.
Food Pairing: Red meat, roasts, noble game and medium aged cheese.

This opens with aromas suggesting damp underbrush, berry, thyme and culinary spice. On the tense, somewhat lean but accessible palate, you'll find sour cherry, star anise and a coffee-bean note alongside bright acidity and polished tannins. Drink 2020-2026.
