The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01The Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G. requires a minimum aging of five years, at least two of which in wooden barrels, and further refinement in the bottle, a guarantee of longevity and complexity. SassodiSole offers an expression of this noble Sangiovese that promises to be intense and profound, as evidenced by the excellent scores awarded by the main international guides in 2021 and 2020. It presents itself in the glass with a vibrant ruby hue, a prelude to a bouquet of aromas ranging from fruity notes to tertiary scents.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, its significant structure and decisive personality are evident.

At the Table
