1.5L 2019 Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Magnum

Taste: This is a deep ruby with garnet reflections at the rim. The nose is layered with notes of ripe black cherry, red plum, and raspberry coulis, interwoven with dried herbs, leather, and cedar. Secondary aromas of anise, rose petal, and warm terra cotta emerge with air. The wine is full-bodied yet precise on the palate, with firm, polished tannins and vibrant acidity driving the structure. Flavors echo the nose, with juicy red fruit framed by baking spice, balsamic, and crushed stone accents. The finish is long, savory, and finely textured, marked by lingering minerality and hints of orange zest and tobacco leaf.

 Pairing: Brunello’s high acidity, firm tannins, and earthy complexity make it a natural partner for richly flavored foods, especially those with roasted, herbal, or umami-driven elements. Traditional pairings such as bistecca alla Fiorentina or wild boar ragù over pappardelle amplify the wine’s depth and bring out its savory undertones. About. The town of Montalcino, loca
