The Brunello di Montalcino is one of Italy"s most important and prestigious wines. The grapes are grown within the hillsides of the township of Montalcino Siena. The wine is 100 Sangiovese Grosso aged three years in Slovenian oak barrels, followed by a bottle aging period of at least six months in temperature controlled cellars. The color is intense ruby red, with pale pomegranate highlights, and a bouquet of hints of vanilla, cherry, raspberry, and licorice. Dry, warm, smooth, well textured and lingering on the palate. Great wine with roasts, grilled meats, wild game, and elaborate dishes, as well as rare T-bone steaks. It can also be served alone, as a reflection wine. -The Winery
