Description

Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2019 is a powerful and refined Riserva made from 100% Sangiovese, produced only in the best years. The wine receives longer cellar aging, giving it more depth, structure and tertiary complexity than the regular Brunello.

In the glass it shows garnet red. The nose is broad, complex and ethereal, with ripe red fruit, dried cherries, earthy tones, humus, leather, tobacco, spices, licorice and a subtle balsamic touch. On the palate it is full and serious, with great depth, powerful yet polished tannins and a long, intense finish.

The Riserva ages for at least two years in oak barrels and at least six months in bottle, with cellaring potential for decades. Ideal with steak, rack of lamb, game, ossobuco, truffle dishes and very mature cheeses. Serve at 18-20°C.
