San Filippo Brunello di Montalcino Le Lucere 2013 is a single-vineyard 100% Sangiovese from Montalcino, Tuscany. Le Lucere is the estate's most precise and distinguished bottling, above its Annata-level Brunello in concentration and complexity.
Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks after a cold pre-maceration of two days at 10°C, with primary fermentation lasting 10 to 12 days at 26-28°C. Malolactic fermentation occurs in cement and stainless steel vats. The wine ages for 24 to 28 months in barrels and barriques, then 10 months in bottle before release.
The nose opens with cherry preserved in alcohol and fresh pink flowers, building toward dried blackberry, black currant and orange peel, with cinnamon and cloves. The palate is rich and juicy with sour red cherry, strawberry, leather and carob, with silky, fine-grained tannins. The finish is long and perfumed, with a saline, mouthwatering quality.
Tasting Notes
Intense, finely layered aromas of cherry preserved in alcohol and fresh pink flowers, building toward dried blackberry, black currant and subtle orange peel, with warm spice notes of cinnamon and cloves.
Rich and juicy entry with sour red cherry and strawberry alongside leather and carob; remarkable density with silky, fine-grained tannins supporting a generous body.
Long and perfumed, with a saline, mouthwatering quality that lingers; fine grains of texture carry smoke, spice and dried fruit through a persistent aftertaste.
