Detailed info
Playing in the same yard in Montalcino, this little brother of Brunello is made from the estate's youngest Sangiovese vines. Aged for 12 months in barrels, it offers a fair amount of tone and an aromatic expression reminiscent of cherry, oak, leather, graphite and bay leaf. Built for a flank steak or pasta with Italian sausages.
