Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino 2020

A Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from Canalicchio di Sopra, made from Sangiovese and aged for three years in large Slavonian oak casks. It is a classic Brunello in style, expressing elegance, depth, minerality and savouriness from the northern slope of Montalcino, where rich soils meet a balsamic character. It suits game and venison fillet in blueberry sauce. The colour is an intense, deep ruby. The nose is compact, built around ripe dark fruit with spices, chocolate, tobacco and leather. The palate is broad and consistent, with a firm tannic backbone and a long finish.
