WINE DESCRIPTION
The Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a complex and powerful expression of Sangiovese from Tuscany. This full-bodied and tannic wine presents a nose of ripe cherries, baking spices, and dried flowers. On the palate, the flavors are concentrated and intense, with notes of ripe dark fruits, leather, tobacco, and dark chocolate. The finish is long, with hints of earthy minerality and a velvety texture. This is an impressive, complex Brunello that will benefit from extended aging. Enjoy over the next decade or more.
