€ 99.00
The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is produced only in stellar vintages, has a bright garnet color and distinctly elegant in the nose, with blueberry fruit and enveloping aromas of spices. It is a well-rounded wine with smooth and fine tannins, and a never-ending finish which marks its longevity. An ideal companion to game and red meats, it is also an excellent meditation wine enjoyed today or left to cellar to be enjoyed 15-30 years from now.
