It’s origins begin with the Sangiovese Grosso, a robust and generous grape type. It’s attributes are expressed in time: a period of aging in oak vats and a lengthy period of fining in the bottle. Brunello di Montalcino has a distinctive intense ruby red colour, tending to garnet with age, with notable scents of rich fruit and spices;on the palate the taste is uniquely characteristic of Montalcino.
