This prestigious presentation not only highlights the quality and elegance of Brunello, but also underlines the importance of the wine as a work of oenological art and a collector's item.

Canalicchio Di Sopra, a renowned winery located in the heart of Montalcino, Tuscany, is known for its Brunello di Montalcino which combines elegance, power and longevity. The winery is committed to expressing the unique characteristics of Sangiovese, the grape variety from which Brunello is exclusively produced, through sustainable practices in the vineyard and careful management in the cellar.

The Magnum format (1.5 litres) is particularly appreciated by connoisseurs for its intrinsic qualities linked to the aging of wine. It offers greater stability and slower maturation than standard bottles, encouraging the development of richer aromatic complexity and more delicate flavor nuances over time.

Canalicchio Di Sopra's Brunello di Montalcino is aged for a minimum period of five years, of which at least two years in wooden barrels, as required by the specifications of the DOCG denomination. This aging process helps give the wine its characteristic tannic structure, aromatic depth and potential for evolution.

Presented in a wooden case, Canalicchio Di Sopra's Brunello di Montalcino Magnum is not only protected and aesthetically enhanced, but also becomes an ideal gift for special occasions or a standout element in any collection of fine wines.

The wine has a deep ruby ​​red color, tending towards garnet with aging. On the nose, it offers a wide range of aromas that include ripe red fruits, spicy, balsamic notes and a background of leather and tobacco, testifying to its evolution and maturity. In the mouth, Brunello di Canalicchio Di Sopra expresses notable complexity with fine tannins and a freshness that balances its richness, leading to a long and persistent finish.

Ideal to accompany red meat dishes, game and mature cheeses, this Brunello in Magnum format can be tasted now or stored to enjoy its evolution over time, becoming even richer and more complex.
