Brunello di Montalcino
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01Brunello di Montalcino, a pillar of Tuscan viticulture, requires at least twelve months of aging in wood and three years from the harvest before commercialization, strict rules that guarantee its substance. The wine presents itself in the glass with an intriguing ruby transparency, a prelude to aromas that evoke primary notes of ripe cherry and an earthy hint.
-
Palate & Finish
02Surprising is its structure on the palate, where the decisive but calibrated tannic component blends with a softness that invites a second sip.

At the Table
03It pairs magnificently with a Bistecca alla Fiorentina, a stewed wild boar, or roasted game.
