Fonterenza - Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2013, Toscana

Fonterenza's Brunello di Montalcino is made with the oldest of the winery's vines and aged for an incredible 47 months in large oak barrels. The palate has plenty of classic Sangiovese flavours including sour cherries. Because of the age of this wine, there is also plenty of leather and spice on the palate. A complex, full bodied natural wine that is truly ageworthy. As with all of wines of Francesca und Margherita Padovani, the grapes are grown organically. The winery also uses biodynamic methods.

Ageing Potential

WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE Plenty of classic sour cherry fruit is on the nose, but the wine is developing so expect some tertiary flavours too such as leather and spice.
STRUCTURE Sangiovese grapes from the winery’s oldest vineyards are aged for 47 months in large oak barrels. The result is complex, structured wine that although tasting wonderful now, could age for decades. On the palate it’s deep and dark with spicy notes, firm tannins and a touch of leather.
PAIRING This is a brooding wine for cold winter nights paired with some special foods such as steak and mushroom sauce.
