Grapes: Sangiovese Grosso
Area: Tuscany
One of the best wines in the world, the Brunello is considerate a “meditation wine” because is drinkable also far from the table. The wine is deep ruby tending toward garnet in color and has aromas of violets, sweet ripe red fruits and berries as well as cigar box, cedar and exotic spices like clove and cardamom. The finish is long and persistent.
Clear, purple-red in color, with good depth and 'legs' indicating great structure. Intensely perfumed on the nose, with fruit aromas including blackberries, blackcurrants and cherries a dominant theme. In the mouth, the wine is full bodied, with tremendous depth and richness, attractive fruit and well-balanced acidity.
