Ciacci Piccolomini Brunello di Montalcino

This beautiful and traditional red balances cherry and plum fruit, tobacco and leather accents, with firm and pliable tannins. As a result, this is vibrant and long, with earth and iron elements emerging on the aftertaste.  This is an incredible wine from one of the oldest estates in Montalcino.

  The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino (with 56,000 bottles made) shows bold cherry, spice, crushed stone and balsam herb that come together in seamless fashion. This estate has honed a unique style that becomes a common theme traced to each new vintage. I'd describe it as delicate but also succulent with a rich and almost pulpy quality of fruit. The wine is fueled by the golden light that hits this part of Tuscany in those last hours of the day. Here is a wine that shows spirit of place.
