A perfect example of the classic Sangiovese grape, Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Montosoli is a balanced and complex Italian red. This single-vineyard wine offers aromas of fresh cherries, sweet raspberries, black pepper, and a hint of smoke. On the palate, flavors of blackberry, sweet tobacco, and licorice are complemented by a velvety texture and powerful, yet elegant, tannins. With its lengthy finish, this Brunello di Montalcino will pair beautifully with tomato-based Italian dishes, hearty game, and aged cheeses.
