Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2011 - La Lecciaia

Brunello di Montalcino Riserva from Fattoria La Lecciaia is more than a wine; it is a sensory journey through the essence of Tuscany and a tribute to the art of Italian winemaking. This winemaking masterpiece, made entirely from Sangiovese grapes, has a ruby ​​red color so intense it is almost hypnotic. On the nose, it is a symphonic bouquet of ripe cherries, exotic spices and a delicate hint of violet that invites you to discover more. On the palate, every sip is an explosion of flavors: full-bodied, yet elegant; structured, yet harmonious. The tannins are like pure silk, perfectly integrated into the wine and culminating in an aromatic persistence that seems to have no end. The aging in oak barrels only enhances its complexity, adding nuances of cedar and tobacco that make it irresistible. This Brunello is the gastronomic companion you have always wanted, capable of elevating already exquisite dishes such as succulent roasts and rich, mature cheeses to an almost symphonic level of pleasure. It is not just a wine, it is an ode to greatness, an experience that will make you fall even more in love with the Italian wine tradition. Impossible to resist: let yourself be seduced.

Fattoria La Lecciaia was founded by Mauro Pacini in 1983 in Montalcino and extends over 60 hectares of which 15 are vineyards. At the beginning of the 2000s the family purchased an additional property in Maremma in the Montecucco denomination, the company was then enriched with another 16 hectares of vineyards. The wonderful main cellar remains the one in Montalcino set around the Manapetra vineyard from which the precious Cru produced by the company derives. The grapes are enhanced to the fullest thanks to careful and meticulous care during the vinification and the wine is subsequently enriched by years of aging in wood. The result is genuine wines that respect tradition with a modern imprint: structured reds with soft and velvety tannins over time, elegant fruity bouquets and remarkable and persistent on the palate.
