About This Wine
Massimo Ferragamo, the mastermind behind the Castiglion del Bosco project of Italy's renowned leather and fashion family, has created a true masterpiece in the form of the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino. This delicate blend presents a harmonious combination of spicy cedar, herbal menthol, fragrant rose petals, and tart cherries, all in a smooth texture enriched by floral and dark fruit notes, with a subtle touch of sweetness. The finish is balanced and elegant, with a lingering aftertaste of bitter berries and a refreshing burst of acidity, as the soft tannins gradually fade away. A continuously improving wine, this showcases the robust essence of Sangiovese from Northwestern Montalcino, expertly balanced for a refined and unforgettable experience.
