Camigliano's Brunello di Montalcino 2019 offers a captivating journey through Tuscany's Sangiovese Grosso. Crafted with precision, this wine matures for 24 months in a harmonious blend of large French and Slavonian oak barrels before resting for an additional 2 years in bottle.
Upon pouring, its intense bouquet unfolds, revealing ripe black fruit notes of blackberry and black cherry, intertwined with subtle hints of spices and the earthy essence of the forest floor.
On the palate, its concentration is evident, delivering a well-balanced symphony of flavors, accentuated by a lingering touch of minerality that gracefully extends into the long, satisfying finish.
To fully unlock its potential, I recommend decanting this Brunello for at least an hour before indulging in its magnificence. Cheers to an exceptional expression of Montalcino terroir!
Camigliano... in the past was certainly inhabited by the Etruscans who followed the course of the Ombrone River from the coastal Maremma area. It then became quite an important hamlet in the late medieval period, an outpost for Montalcino, joining in the fight to defend republican freedom in the middle of the 16th century.
