Tasting notes

Garnet-ruby colour. Aromas of ripe cherry, plum and dried flowers with spice, liquorice and vanilla from oak ageing. Full and elegant on the palate, with the bright acidity and firm, fine-grained tannins of Sangiovese and a long, savoury finish. Decant before serving.

About this wine

Brunello di Montalcino is the flagship red of Castello Banfi, one of the best-known estates of Montalcino, in southern Tuscany. Like every Brunello, it is made from 100% Sangiovese grown within the Montalcino area and can only be released after a long period of ageing, partly in oak barrels and partly in bottle, as required by the DOCG rules.

Banfi has played an important role in the international success of Brunello since the late 1970s. This wine, with 14% alcohol, combines ripe cherry fruit with spice and fine, firm tannins. It is a classic Tuscan red for special dinners and benefits from decanting.
