Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 Fattoria La Lecciaia

The Brunello di Montalcino from Fattoria La Lecciaia is a prestigious red wine, made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes. Hailing from vineyards located on the hills of Montalcino, it expresses elegance and power, embodying the tradition and unique terroir of the denomination. Its balanced structure and complex aromatic profile make it a leading figure in Tuscan viticulture.

Fermentation occurs in temperature-controlled steel tanks for a period of 15-20 days, with frequent pump-overs to encourage the extraction of color and tannins. Subsequently, the wine matures for at least 36 months in Slavonian oak barrels, further refining its complexity before a minimum of 4 months of aging in the bottle. This long process ensures a wine of great longevity and harmony.

Visual inspection reveals an intense ruby red color, enriched by garnet reflections. The bouquet is characteristic and enveloping, with hints of ripe berries, sweet spices, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, it is broad, dry, and warm, with a well-defined tannic structure that imparts body and persistence. The balance between freshness and softness enhances the depth of the sip, making it elegant and captivating.

Perfectly paired with grilled red meats, game, and aged cheeses, it expresses its character best when accompanied by rich and structured dishes of Tuscan tradition.
