Type: Red Wine (Brunello di Montalcino DOCG / Traditional Tuscan Red / Age-Worthy)
Region: Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
Grapes: 100% Sangiovese (Sangiovese Grosso / Brunello clone)
Alcohol ABV: 14%
Aroma:
A classic and elegant Brunello showing aromas of ripe cherry, wild strawberry, red plum, and dried roses. With age, the bouquet develops deeper layers of leather, tobacco, cedar, forest floor, and sweet spices. Hints of Mediterranean herbs and balsamic notes add complexity, reflecting the traditional character of Montalcino Sangiovese.
Palate:
Full-bodied yet refined, with the characteristic balance of powerful structure and freshness found in great Brunello. The palate delivers flavours of sour cherry, black cherry, cranberry, and plum, supported by firm but polished tannins and vibrant acidity. Secondary notes of leather, tea leaves, tobacco, earth, and spice emerge on the long, savoury finish.
The grapes are hand-harvested from Gianni Brunelli’s vineyards in Montalcino and undergo spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts. Traditional maceration is followed by extended ageing in large Slavonian oak casks, allowing the Sangiovese to develop complexity while preserving freshness and elegance. The wine is then further aged in bottle before release, following Brunello di Montalcino DOCG requirements.
Gianni Brunelli farms vineyards around Montalcino, including the historic Le Chiuse di Sotto and Podernovone sites. The vineyards are cultivated with respect for the natural environment, focusing on low yields, careful vineyard management, and expressing the unique terroir of Montalcino’s clay, limestone, and mineral-rich soils. The combination of altitude, Mediterranean climate, and Sangiovese Grosso gives the wine its balance of power, acidity, and longevity.
