WINE DESCRIPTION
La Fornace Brunello di Montalcino is characterized by its deep ruby-red color and complex bouquet. It typically offers aromas of ripe red berries, cherry, plum, and violet, complemented by notes of leather, tobacco, and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-structured, with robust tannins and bright acidity providing balance and longevity. The wine is often aged for several years in oak barrels and bottle-aged before release, allowing it to develop depth and complexity.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Expect flavors of dark cherry, blackberry, and dried herbs, alongside hints of earth and a touch of vanilla from oak aging.The wine's firm tannins and pronounced acidity contribute to its aging potential, while the finish is long and persistent, leaving impressions of fruit and spice.
