π A soulful, structured Brunello from a top family-run estate in the heart of Montalcino.
π In the Glass:
Deep garnet red with brick hues at the rimβa nod to its noble ageing.
π On the Nose:
Aromatic and refined, revealing layers of ripe red cherry, wild strawberry, dried rose, and cedar, followed by earthy notes of leather, tobacco leaf, and a touch of balsamic spice. A classic Brunello bouquet that unfolds beautifully with air.
π
On the Palate:
The palate is powerful and poised, with an intense core of sour cherry, dark plum, and liquorice, wrapped in a frame of firm, polished tannins. Notes of sweet spice, forest floor, and graphite minerality carry through to a long, savoury finish. This is Brunello with depth and clarity.
π½ Food Pairing:
Ideal with roast leg of lamb, wild boar ragu, aged pecorino, steak Florentine, or truffle risotto. Also excellent with slow-cooked mushroom or game dishes.

Drink now with a decant or cellar for 10β15+ years to allow secondary and tertiary notes of leather, mushroom, and dried herbs to fully emerge. A wine with serious longevity and reward for patience.
