Ferrero Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese - Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy
Producer's Notes:
Deep ruby red of great intensity. Rich and complex. The varietal notes of the Sangiovese are enhanced in an elegant way by the tertiary aromas of the ageing. Great structure and ripe tannins are in balance with volume and acidity. Long, clean and mineral aftertaste.
What We Say:
Grown on the sun-drenched, hilly slopes of southern Montalcino at about 250m above sea level, this Sangiovese is a structured, sophisticated red that blends vibrant fruit and natural acidity with the complexity of extended aging. It has a richness and elegance that reveal layers of ripe cherry, dark berries, spice, and savoury earthiness. The palate is deep and full-bodied, with ripe tannins and strong Sangiovese-style acidity that create a lively, balanced tasting experience.
The grapes are manually harvested, with careful selection of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place on the skins for 21 days at a controlled temperature below 28°C in 60- and 80-hl short, wide stainless steel tanks. Aging follows for a total of 4 years, including 2 years in Allier oak casks, then refined in bottle in a temperature-controlled storage room.
