BRAMANTE 2010 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Sanlorenzo

Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G.

Sanlorenzo’s finest grapes are devoted to a very fine Brunello di Montalcino, the result is a perfect combination of terroir, vineyard and winemaking.

It is an incredibly elegant and intense wine, able to express itself at its best over time.

Grape: 100% Sangiovese

Harvest: the slightly late harvest of these grapes results in a very fruity wine with significant body. The grapes are harvested by hand.

Vinification: in the cantina, after a light pressing of the bunches, fermentation takes place for 25 days in steel vats at controlled temperatures, where the wine is subject to periodic pumping up and dèlastage.

Aging: the wine is refined together with the lees, in vats that have an average capacity of 30-35 hectolitres sothat an optimum equilibrium is achieved. Before being placed on the market the wine undergoes an ulterior 4-month refinement in the bottle.

Characteristics: dark garnet red, with a generous nose, it has aromas of dried flowers, spices, and ripe fruits. It finishes long.

Combinations: A very good accompaniment for game, beef, and seasoned pecorino cheese.
