Il Marroneto 2015

Red
Brunello di Montalcino, Italy
7.8
WineSaint

Wild strawberry and cardamom lift from the glass with mineral precision. The palate shows classic Brunello structure. Bright acidity drives red fruit through an impressively long finish while fine tannins add grip without heaviness. Dried herbs and dusty earth emerge with air. Elegant rather than powerful, drinking beautifully now through 2030.

Il Marroneto

Small Montalcino estate producing Brunello and Rosso from a single north-facing hillside site, including the single-vineyard Madonna delle Grazie, long regarded as one of the appellation's benchmark addresses.
