Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Manapetra Riserva DOCG 2012 - La Lecciaia

Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Manapetra Riserva DOCG by La Lecciaia is more than a wine; it is a sensory experience that embodies the soul of Tuscany. Made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the prestigious Vigna Manapetra, this wine is a sublime example of winemaking mastery. Its complexity and structure have been expertly refined through a long aging of three and a half years in high-quality oak barrels, followed by further refinement in the bottle for at least four months. On the nose, it reveals an enveloping bouquet of ripe red fruits and exotic spices, evoking an atmosphere of warmth and hospitality. On the palate, the wine stands out for its elegance, with velvety tannins and a robustness that makes it absolutely irresistible. It is the ideal companion for game dishes and mature cheeses, but it is also a meditation wine, perfect for moments of reflection and relaxation.

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.
