Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Aziende Pietroso

The barrel-aged Brunello di Montalcino from the Tuscan wine-growing region presents itself in the glass with a dense ruby red color. If you give it some air in the glass by swirling, this red wine reveals high viscosity, which shows in church windows on the rim of the glass. The bouquet of this red wine from Tuscany impresses with notes of blackberry. If we pursue the aroma further, fennel and tobacco are added, enhanced by the influence of oak.

On the palate, the Brunello di Montalcino from Aziende Pietroso opens pleasantly aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. On the finish, this red wine from the Tuscan region finally delights with a lovely length. Notes of blackberry appear again.
