More questions
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Leonardo Da Vinci 1502 comes from a unique terroir in the heart of Tuscany, where Sangiovese Grosso expresses itself at its peak elegance and structure. This wine is born from selected vineyards in the Montalcino area, characterized by soils rich in clay and galestro, which give the product complexity and great longevity. The aging takes place in oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop an intense aromatic texture, enriched with notes of ripe red fruits, cherry, tobacco, and spicy hints. On the palate, the Brunello presents a robust body, velvety tannins, and a harmonious balance that makes it an ideal companion for red meats, substantial roasts, and aged cheeses. Leonardo Da Vinci 1502 captures the essence of the territory and the winemaking tradition of Montalcino, offering a deep and refined tasting experience.
