A profound garnet hue introduces this Brunello, offering a bouquet of ripe black cherry, dried fig, and subtle leather, underscored by hints of anise and forest floor. The palate is full-bodied and impeccably structured, with finely grained tannins that provide a firm backbone, balanced by vibrant acidity. Layers of dark plum and earthy minerality unfold, leading to a long, elegant finish with whispers of espresso and dried herbs. This Riserva exemplifies the quintessential Montalcino terroir, showcasing both power and finesse, and promises further complexity with careful cellaring.

6 Rovari
Rich, full-bodied wine with a rich red hue, boasting a well-rounded essence of redcurrant, cherry, and herbaceous notes, accompanied by a dry, vibrant finish. The wine's firm tannins and high bracing quality make it a stonking standout for aging, with a potential lifespan of 10-15 years. A well-crafted, long-lasting wine.
Satrape
Bold and full-bodied wine with a multi faceted flavor profile, featuring distinct raspberry and cranberry hints alongside floral undertones. The backbone is well-balanced, with a clean zest and a firm tannic mouthfeel.
