Corte dei Pazzi "Saccente" Brunello di Montalcino 2018
Brunello di Montalcino is undoubtedly one of Italy’s most acclaimed reds with serious cellaring potential. The DOCG wine law decrees a minimum of 5 years from harvest before Brunello can be released on the market.
Chianti Geografico is woven into the fabric of modern winemaking in Chianti; it was founded in 1961 by a band of 17 wine growers who believed the Chianti name was being used too broadly across Tuscany – to the detriment of quality. The cooperative was acquired by the prestigious Piccini family in 2018 and they have increased the quality even further.
Their collaboration with winemaker Riccardo Cotarella – arguably Italy’s most famed oenological consultant – yields a bountiful expression in this attractive and generous wine, bursting with plum, chocolate and sweet spices.
