Brunello di Montalcino

Brunello di Montalcino is produced exclusively from Sangiovese grapes. It is an elegant and powerful wine with hints of ripe red berries, black pepper, licorice & elegant spices.  It ages for two years, followed by bottle aging for at least 24 months.  Palate is bold, with powerful persistence and a finish that resolves with returning notes of stewed cherries and quince.
