WINE DESCRIPTION

Sesti Brunello di Montalcino is a premium red wine produced by the Sesti family in the Montalcino appellation of Tuscany, Italy. The wine is made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the family's vineyards, which are situated on the slopes of the Montalcino hills. The vineyards are farmed using biodynamic principles, which emphasizes the importance of the natural environment and the lunar cycle in the cultivation of grapes. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including long maceration and aging in large oak barrels. The resulting wine is a classic expression of Brunello di Montalcino, with a deep ruby color, complex aromas of red fruit, leather, and spice, and a full-bodied, elegant palate with firm tannins and a long finish.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Sesti Brunello di Montalcino is an incredibly well-balanced and complex wine.On the nose, you'll find aromas of blackberry, earth, tobacco, and a hint of leather. The palate offers a balance of ripe fruit flavors such as strawberry, cherry, and blackberry, as well as earthy notes of leather and tobacco. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of smokiness. This wine is elegant and well-structured, and it will continue to develop complexity over time. Enjoy it now or cellar it for years to come.
