With an intense ruby red color, typical of the best Brunello, Fonterenza stands out for its balanced structure and an olfactory complexity that enchants the nose with aromas of ripe cherries, sweet spices, and a slight trace of wet earth and tobacco, derived from a maturation in the barrel lasting no less than four years.
In the mouth, the robustness of well-integrated tannins combines with a lively acidity that promises long aging. The rich and elegant flavor, with notes of red fruit, chocolate, and a hint of vanilla, leaves a persistent and pleasantly harmonious aftertaste.
Ideal to accompany red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses, the Brunello di Montalcino Fonterenza is a superb choice for connoisseurs seeking a wine that can evolve beautifully over the years. Serve at a temperature of 18-20°C to enhance all its qualities.
