Podere Le Ripi Cielo d'Ulisse Brunello di Montalcino 2020

Podere Le Ripi's Cielo d'Ulisse is a Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from the 2020 vintage, made from Sangiovese. The grapes are harvested by hand in late September, then ferment and macerate for about 20 days in stainless steel, with malolactic fermentation. Ageing lasts 36 months in large wooden casks. The wine is organic and biodynamic. It shows a delicate ruby colour, with layered aromas of cherry, raspberry, liquorice and undergrowth herbs. On the palate it is dynamic, full-bodied and deep, with polished, sophisticated tannins. It suits red meat and game, and is worth trying with a Florentine steak.
