Descrizione
This classic, elegant and stylish Brunello is simply gorgeous. Charming in its perfume and sensuous palate, it delivers warmth and generosity with notes of pomegranate, raspberry coulis and beautifully integrated spices. The marked acidity balances the alcohol and the core of minerality leads to a long and bright finish.
Long before the world was blown away by Brunello, the vineyards at this property were making elegant and classic wines on the southern slopes of Montalcino. The wines were some of the first to be showed outside of the region in the early 1930s at the Wine Exhibition of Siena, where interest in the wines created something of a scandal as nobody had thought wines so far south of Chianti could perform so well.
Originally brought into the Franceschi family’s ownership in 1890, there had been wine made at the site the 1700s. Sold in 1973 to the Cinzano family, their investment and focus on the high-quality potential in the winery and the whole Montalcino area, it is the largest organic farm in Tuscany and the third largest vineyard area in Montalcino.
Still run by the Cinzano family, Il Conte Francesco Marone Cinzano is the current chairman (pictured with the fabulous cigar), this wine is genuinely one of the best-loved, respected and most popular Brunellos available, and, as such, is amazing value for money.
We also can’t stop loving that it’s a the Cinzano family and that they make Cinzano and that Cinzano is in fact their actual surname!
