Wine with a lighter red hue, nostalgic of Pinot Noir, but with a more approachable and enjoyable character. The nose reveals mild accents of leather and fig, which add complexity and layers to the overall experience. The medium-bodied wine has a supple and gentle texture, and yet the finish is long and satisfying.

Voss Experts4.3

This Castiglion del Bosco Brunello di Montalcino is a brilliant expression of Sangiovese from Tuscany. Aromas of dark cherry, plum, and earthy spice are complemented by a hint of forest floor and leather. On the palate, the wine has a soft texture, with a pleasant acidity and a long finish of ripe fruit and spices. Rich and powerful, this Brunello will pair perfectly with a variety of dishes, from grilled meats to aged cheese. Enjoy now or cellar for up to 20 years.
