Altesino Brunello Di Montalcino Tinto

Description

This Altesino Brunello di Montalcino is a rather dramatic affair – a wine that seems to be *expecting* a certain level of reverence. The Sangiovese bursts with floral freshness, hinting at rose, violet, and a delightfully unexpected touch of lavender. On the palate, the complexity is almost performative, revealing notes of anise and a curious, yet pleasing, hint of treacle and rock candy. Rumour has it it will only get better with age... but do try it with a hearty roast to see if the elegance truly lives up to the hype.
