Description
Obtained from Sangiovese grapes grown on the northeast slope of the Montalcino hill, in the historic Canalicchio area, this Brunello di Montalcino by Lambardi fully expresses the austere and deep character of the territory. The vineyards, situated at an altitude of 350 meters on tuff and clay soils rich in skeleton, give rise to a wine of great structure and personality.
Vinification begins with a low-temperature pre-maceration, followed by intense extraction with automated pump-overs and punch-downs. The maceration on the skins continues for about 30-40 days, at a controlled temperature, and the wine matures for 36 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, where it develops aromatic complexity and depth.
In appearance, it shows a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections. The bouquet is ethereal, complex, and intense. On the palate, it reveals an imposing structure, with a full body and marked but integrated tannins, expressing an austere, elegant, and long-lasting profile.
It pairs magnificently with stewed or roasted red meats, game, aged cheeses, and dark chocolate.
