The Brunello di Montalcino Franci Riserva from Tassi winery is an enological masterpiece that reflects the excellence of viticulture in the renowned Montalcino area in Tuscany. This wine is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, meticulously selected from the oldest and most prestigious vineyards of the estate, ensuring a pure and intense expression of the local terroir.

Aging in oak barrels, which can last up to five years, distinguishes this Brunello di Montalcino with its extraordinary complexity and depth. On the nose, the Franci Riserva offers a rich and enveloping bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruits, subtle spices, and a slight touch of chocolate that blend wonderfully with hints of leather and tobacco from the extended maturation.

On the palate, the wine surprises with its robustness and elegance. The attack is vigorous, yet balanced by refined tannins and a persistent freshness that leads to a broad and enduring finish. The structure of the Brunello di Montalcino Franci Riserva is powerfully harmonious, capable of significant evolution over the years.

This wine is an excellent representative of Italian enological tradition, ideal for accompanying elaborate red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. Additionally, it is a prestigious option for any collector, given its remarkable aging potential.

The Tassi winery, with its dedication to quality and respect for the land, confirms with the Brunello di Montalcino Franci Riserva its commitment to offering enthusiasts wines of undisputed value and authenticity.
