Descrizione

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 from Castello Banfi is a wine that embodies the excellence of the Tuscan terroir, produced exclusively with Sangiovese grosso grapes grown in the renowned hills of Montalcino. The 2019 harvest gave rise to a balanced and harmonious vintage, where structure and refinement blend into a complex and enveloping identity.

Carefully aged in oak barrels, this Brunello shows an intense and deep ruby color. On the nose, it reveals an elegant bouquet, rich with scents of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and subtle balsamic notes. On the palate, the tannin structure is velvety, supported by good acidity that ensures freshness and longevity, with a persistent and refined finish.

The perfect companion to important dishes such as red meats, game, and aged cheeses, the Brunello di Montalcino 2019 in magnum format expresses its power and complexity at its best, ideally to be shared on great occasions.
