Castello Banfi — Brunello di Montalcino Poggio alle Mura — 2019 — 750ml

VARIETY: Sangiovese from a combination of estate selected clones, from the estate research started in 1982.

Brilliant ruby red colour, with a complex olfactory structure from which notes of currant and black cherry stand out, combined with hints of rhubarb and roasting. Spicy finish with notes of white pepper and juniper. The structure is decidedly important, with soft, velvety tannins. Great finish in the mouth.

It is a long ageing wine which pairs excellently with rich and succulent dishes, as well as ripe cheeses. Perfect as a meditation wine.
