WINE DESCRIPTION
The Antinori Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino is a full-bodied and powerful red wine from the Montalcino region of Tuscany. The wine is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, which are harvested by hand and then aged for five years in medium-toast oak barrels. The nose has aromas of ripe red fruits and sweet spices, while the palate is full of sweet cherry and plum flavors, accompanied by earthy and smoky notes. This wine has a long and complex finish, with hints of licorice and tobacco. It is a perfect accompaniment to roast meats, game, and aged cheeses.
