Description

The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2011 from Podere Casisano is an extraordinary expression of the Sangiovese grosso grape, cultivated in the charming hilly territories of Montalcino, the beating heart of Tuscany. This vintage, among the most appreciated, stands out for its balance between structure and finesse, the result of careful winemaking and prolonged aging in oak barrels that enhance its olfactory and gustatory complexity.

In the glass, it presents an intense ruby color, enriched by garnet reflections typical of aging. On the nose, there are enveloping aromas of ripe cherry, tobacco, sweet spices, and light balsamic notes accompanied by underbrush scents. The sip is full and robust, with velvety tannins and a long, persistent finish, a sign of great longevity.

Perfect paired with braised red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this Brunello in magnum format is a work of winemaking art to be stored or shared on the most important occasions.

Terroir and vineyards
