Brunello di Montalcino Gianni Brunelli 2016

From the historic Gianni Brunelli winery, located in the heart of Montalcino's southeastern slopes, this 2016 Brunello di Montalcino is an extraordinary expression of power, elegance, and longevity. The winery, renowned for its traditional style and meticulous attention to terroir, has masterfully interpreted an exceptional vintage, considered one of the best of the decade.

Made from pure Sangiovese Grosso grapes and with an alcohol content of 14.5%, the wine has been aged extensively in large oak barrels. On the nose, it presents a complex and layered bouquet of ripe cherry, plum, tobacco, leather, sweet spices, and a balsamic touch. On the palate, it is structured and enveloping, with dense yet silky tannins and a pleasant freshness that ensures a long evolution over time. The finish is persistent, leaving an impression of great harmony and depth. It pairs magnificently with rich red meat dishes, game, and mature cheeses.
