A certified-organic wine, the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino is a wine of elegance and finesse, and these qualities emerge unobstructed despite the hot and dry vintage. Despite the many challenges of the growing season, this 30,000-bottle release remains faithful to Sangiovese and the purity of the appellation. The fruit shows wild berry, blue flowers and balsam herb. These delicate and carefully measured aromas cede to bright acidity and polished tannins.

Macerated cherry and plum flavors pick up elements of menthol, wild herbs, earth and licorice in this supple red. Balanced and tangy, with a spicy, saline finish. Best from 2024 through 2038. 2,500 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
