Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 'Madonna del Piano' 2016

A Brunello di Montalcino Riserva from Valdicava in Tuscany, from the 'Madonna del Piano' vineyard, made from Sangiovese. The 2016 vintage shows a deep ruby-red colour with garnet reflections and a layered bouquet of ripe black cherries, cassis, dried violets, fresh leather, licorice and earthy minerality. On the palate it is full-bodied and structured, with refined yet firm tannins balanced by vibrant acidity, and notes of dark berries, crushed herbs and tobacco leading to a persistent and elegant finish.
