Ser Davì Brunello di Montalcino

Wine Description & Tasting Notes

Produced in the vineyards surrounding the town of Montalcino, in the province of Siena, located about 80 km south of Florence, in the Tuscan wine region. Brunello, is the name that was given locally to what was believed to be an individual grape variety grown in Montalcino.

However, in 1879, after a few years of controlled experiments it was discovered that Sangiovese and Brunello were the same grape variety, and so in Montalcino the name Brunello evolved into the designation of the wine produced with 100% Sangiovese.

In 1980, the Montalcino region was the first Italian wine region to be awarded Denominazione di OrigineControllata e Garantita (DOCG) designation. A sign of this region’s consistent quality in winemaking.

Brunello is made totally from Sangiovese, Tuscany’s flagship grape that is prized for its ability to reflect where it’s grown. It is typically bolder than Chianti, Tuscany’s other famous Sangiovese wine.

Nose: Intense aromas of blackberries and cherries with undertones of tobacco leaves and liqourice

Palate: Dry, medium to full bodied with velvety well intergrated tannins. flavours of dark fruits blanced with baking spices and cigar box. lovely long finish.

Food Pairing: This wine is perfect enjoyed on its own but loves to be paired with game, venision stews and mature cheeses.
